Several people dead in New Jersey mall shooting

A shill legally buys firearms in one State, then sells them off to people in another State. Unless they've started up roving bands of Federal firearms inspectors, in the last couple of years, this method works very well for supplying people who wouldn't otherwise qualify for ownership.

"Shilling" works once as a rule and for one gun at a time. Multi Purchases ring alarm bells across the all system. Shilling works best when you Have the ATF telling people to sell you the gun. The actual term though is "Straw Purchase" The most famous "Straw Purchaser" Is Sarah Brady, who lied on a 4473 form to buy bolt action rifle for a family member. Interestingly enough it was a Scoped bolt action center-fire rifle that the Brady campaign described as " Sinister High Powered Snipers rifle"

Oh and Yes the ATF routinely performs site checks. Ask anyone in the US who has ever held a FFL
