[QUOTE="bettingpython, post: 1908613, member: 4307"] The clerk and the store have no legal liability. Once the purchaser signs the 4473 attesting that their statements are true and accurate they become the liable party. It's not he job of some $10 an hour clerk to ascertain the veracity of my wife's statements that she is swearing to on a federal form. Nor is it their job to determine whether or not a person is physically capable of handling a specific firearm. Now if I walk up to the counter with my wife and say "honey buy me that gun I don't feel like being delayed" and hand her the money then yes that would technically be a straw purchase but I would love to see it proven in court since Oklahoma is a community property state and the funds are from a joint bank account. She was the one that decided to surprise me by going back to academy and get me the 10/22 when NICS didn't call them back and the jerk at the counter remembered her and when he quizzed her she told him it was a gift since I was bummed they wouldn't transfer without the explicit OK from NICS. Just one more reason to support your local FFL and not the big box IMHO. YMMV [/QUOTE]
