shows you a carry permit from that state to prove to you that she's not prohibited ('cause you're a law-abiding type citizen and you asked), then after paying you she immediately drives home and hands to gun to her ex-convict, gang banger boyfriend

Aguila, I have no real knowledge here, so I'll ask this question. Isn't it stated in the laws that a seller, FFL or private, must HAVE KNOWLEDGE that it is a straw purchase, in order for their actions to be illegal?
Otherwise, in this example, this seller is satisfied with proof, that the buyer is a legal person. Dealer/seller is totally legal. Is that not correct? I would interpret this as once the gun transfers from legal seller to legal buyer, seller is covered, and buyer's actions afterwards, are purely their own. The intent of the party/parties is important here.
Simply my opinion,
