I agree that the strongest argument against this practice is that it will lead to de facto gun registration.

I think another very good one is that it will do nothing to prevent crime.


Criminals are criminals because they disobey the law they are not going to obey the new law anymore than they would current law which more than likely prevents them form buying or possessing a firearm.

Straw purchasers will still be a problem. All a criminal will have to do is find someone with a clean record. A lot of crime guns come through this route. And whiel this is illegal it is still done. No new law would change this.
