This is a off shoot from GunnyUSMC thread

I was surprised to find that most criminals are getting guns from straw purchases not stolen guns.

So the questions are what can be done to curtail this more? Also how are gangs able to find so many people that will buy guns for them? Anybody that gets into gang life and is affiliated with sooner or later is going to get a record probably a felony.
Sorry to say but if so this does put a case toward disputing private sales also when no back ground check is done, even though a back ground check doesn't guarantee a flag will come up.
