    Technically as covered in this article every sale was to a legal purchaser. The problem is they were buying on behalf of someone who cannot. This is not something the manufacturers can control.

      Yeah, but it seems awful sketch when manufacturers make something like the Colt 1911 Presidente chambered in 38…

        38 is a common enough caliber, people want the 1911 form factor in 38, I say give it to them.
