    So is there supposed to be any type of follow up or legal repercussion when a criminal/ wife beater tries to buy a gun?
    I know there are like 4000 gun laws not enforced, so serious question.

    I was wondering the same thing. Shouldn't he be charged as a prohibited person attempting to buy a gun?

    18 USC 922 (g)(9):

    It shall be unlawful for any person—...who has been convicted in any court of a misdemeanor crime of domestic violence,

    to ship or transport in interstate or foreign commerce, or possess in or affecting commerce, any firearm or ammunition; or to receive any firearm or ammunition which has been shipped or transported in interstate or foreign commerce.
