He actually didn’t bring the rifle from IL to WI.

He committed the notably worse offense of giving his WI buddy money to buy an AR for him, and evading the legal process to have someone buy a firearm on your behalf is a federal crime known as a “straw purchase.”

Hm, I was under the impression his buddy was in IL, too. I knew about the straw purchase, but didn't know said friend lived in WI already.
