We knew she would be asking me a lot of questions come the day. As it happened, she spent more time shopping than I did - the store had the exact model I didn't know I wanted until I saw it; but they had several different pistols in the desired caliber for my wife (G17L and Walther P22 with the longer barrel if you care. Since carry is impossible in NJ anyway, the primary use would be slaughtering paper, with a secondary use of home defense. I'd heard good things about the .22 kits for the glock, and my wife has smaller hands, so the grip of the Walther was perfect for her. If, in the 5 years or so it'll take, NJ gets "shall issue" I'll just buy another gun or 2. ) One of the reasons my wife and I both bought on the same day was to reduce the chance of tripping a “straw-purchase” sense on the guy behind the counter.

It actually sounds like it's really easy for the .gov to get the evidence they need to prosecute both straw purchasers and the FFLs who willingly/knowingly facilitate them.
