[QUOTE="okietool, post: 2535083, member: 6030"] The way I understand it, it only qualified because his dad gave him the money beforehand to make the purchase (thereby qualifying for his LEO discount). That seems a little like cheating, I wonder if that swayed the decision in some way? I wonder how long you have to hold a gun before you can resell it and not be in jeopardy for making a straw sale? The way I understand it, if you buy a firearm and you know you are eventually going to resell it, you may be in jeopardy. That would never be the case with me because I lost all my firearms and I never sell anyway. Does this make be an escrow guy (holding another parties money during a transaction) a straw purchaser? What about PayPal? Or if you want to stretch it, credit card companies. Form what I also understand, the rules on buying a firearm for a gift are set out in a letter from the BATFE and not law. That might meant the Supreme Court could strike that down at will, it probably does mean that. I agree 100%, even though my post may not reflect that. And it wasn't really legislation, just a decision on the interpretation of the existing laws wording. Wasn't it? [/QUOTE]
