This is why universal gun background checks are just a Trojan Horse for gun registration.......this guy passed background checks for the purchase of 39 guns from 15 different gun stores........then gave those guns purchased with gun background checks to a convicted felon....
Anti-gun extremists know that background checks do not stop criminals from getting guns.....anti-gun extremists want universal background checks so that when they fail to stop gun crime and mass public shootings, they can come back and demand gun registration.......their real goal...
Court records indicate that over about three months last fall, Keenan D. Hughes, 33, purchased 39 handguns from 15 Wisconsin stores, paying more than $25,000 cash, on behalf of Marvin Powell, 41, of Milwaukee, a repeat felon who can't legally possess, much less purchase, firearms.
Notice.....it wan't the gun background check that caught these two guys.......
To repeat....so that even an anti-gun extremist can understand...
Gun Background checks did not catch these criminals.....
No background check was performed when the gun store called the police....they simply got suspicious...
In early November, something spooked Powell and Hughes after they visited a gun shop in Cross Plains and they left without buying anything, the charges state. The shop's owner shared video of the men and their vehicle, caught on video, with the ATF. Agents traced the car to Powell.
Agents stopped Powell and Hughes Nov. 16 shortly after they exited Powell's house and got in the same car seen in the Cross Plains video. Hughes had two guns in his pockets and there were boxes for three handguns in the car.

Feds say 'straw buyer' purchased 39 handguns for a felon since July, paid more than $25,000 cash to firearms dealers
Federal prosecutors have charged two Milwaukee men with conspiring to illegally purchase nearly 40 handguns last fall
