If the buyer and seller do not reside in the same state the sale has to go through a federally licensed dealer


would be assumed. But what complicates it is obviously internet sales where a less sophisticated trace might hit a VPN that is spoofing a location within that state (but is actually from another state or even another country), so there is no good "proof" that a border was crossed.

I think what some of these laws are also trying to do is thwart straw purchasers where someone might travel to a state with zero permits needed and little or regulation enforcement, and buy a pile of weapons at multiple dealers for a "personal collection", and then bring them home (in another state) to sell.
