Chandler Straw Purchase of a Firearm Lawyer

Straw Purchase of a Firearm is a federal crime. A straw purchase is when the buyer is receiving the goods or services on behalf of a third party. Straw purchases of firearms are illegal, as many prohibited possessors will use this as a means to avoid a background check.

If you legally purchase a firearm from a licensed dealer, you will be required to fill out Federal Form 4473 at the time of purchase. This form will be kept on file with the ATF (Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives). Question 11 on form 4473 specifically asks if the buyer is the actual “transferee/buyer” of the weapon.

There is also a warning:

“Are you the actual transferee/buyer of the firearm(s) listed on this form? Warning: You are not the actual transferee/buyer if you are acquiring the firearm(s) on behalf of another person. If you are not the actual transferee/buyer, the licensee cannot transfer the firearm(s) to you. Exception: If you are picking up a repaired firearm(s) for another person, you are not required to answer 11.a. and may proceed to question 11.b. (See Instructions for Question 11.a.)”

It is a federal crime under 18 U.S. Code § 922 to lie or mislead the seller about the identity of the ultimate possessor of the firearm. Since this is a federal crime, you will need to consult with a criminal defense attorney who is licensed to practice in federal court.

Most criminal defense lawyers either are not licensed to go to federal court or have no experience representing people charged with federal crimes in federal court.

Hello Mr. Victor, I've been on the A.O.R program since Aug 2022, and have had to use your services five times in the past 2 and half years from my ex-wife and step son. All of five of them where dismissed !! Thanks to Rachel Moss and Tory Srewart professionalism. Actually the entire staff at Attorneys for freedom have always been very helpful and professional. I highly recommend them them for your legal needs.Thank you once again from an A.O.R. program member since 8/22.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We are glad to hear that the AOR program was a success!

Lord forbid I should ever require their services.
That aside, customer service is outstanding !!
If you send them a concern or question. Don’t walk to far away, because your response is flying back at you; all of mine were answered same day including weekends.
I recommend them all day long. Cheers

Every time I've called their Law firm... I've asked a question and I've gotten an answer without having to drive 45 minutes and pay someone for a 37 second answer... These people are the Best of the Best... Hope I NEVER have to use their courtroom expertise... If you get my drift 👍👍👍🇺🇲

I recently had a double bill of my wife's membership that I caught on my credit card bill. I called and spoke to Noslen in customer service, she was able to figure out that when my wife upgraded to the new AOR service that she was double billed and took care of the error right away. That was good enough for me to be happy with her service, but she called me back right away and asked if I had been double billed the month before when I upgraded my subscription. I thought I probably hadn't but she checked and found that I had, then started a refund for me also. It is great to do business with a company that hires good people and encourages them to walk the walk as Marc Victor would say. Thank you Noslen and AOR!
