When you purchase a firearm at a federally licensed dealer, you must fill out an ATF 4473 form. It is a felony to lie on the form and say you are purchasing a firearm for yourself when it's really for someone else,
If Mr. Kelly did not intend to keep the AR-15, but to give it to another, he is committing a felony by being a "straw purchaser" under current law, and he must have stated on the ATF Form 4473 that he was buying it for himself, so he committed perjury on the BATF form, also a felony.
sure is easy,... to break the law... but I doubt he will even get charged..
