“Users of the online forum Reddit took advantage of a community page to purchase at least 150 firearms, including semi-automatic rifles, since June, highlighting the potential to exploit a common loophole in federal gun law online. The subreddit page GunsForSale has been an active spot for gun buyers and sellers since 2011, offering over 1,000 listings from more than 400 Reddit users in the last six months, according to an investigation by Mother Jones. Since June, at least 159 transactions have taken place on GunsForSale, according to over 100 Redditors who used the subreddit’s automated tool for verifying sales and assessing sellers, Mother Jones detailed.”
