Interesting. This case decides whether a straw purchase applies to one legal person purchasing a gun for another legal person.
Too bad they chose not to hear Woollard v. Gallagher.

U.S. Supreme Court to hear “straw purchase” case

This case brought by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms & Explosives is just the latest in a long line of cases that suggests the ATF is a petty bureaucracy drunk on it’s own power, disinterested in prosecuting actual criminals:
Arguments for Abramski v. United States will take place in January. Bruce Abramski, a retired police officer, bought a handgun for his elderly uncle because he could get it at discount as former law enforcement. Mr. Abramski checked the box on the federal background check form that said he was the “actual buyer.”
The issue in the Abramski case is whether this should apply when a lawful person buys a gun for someone who is legally allowed to own a firearm.
