#2 The have it backwards. Nobody in Tennessee is pushing guns to New York. What is happening is people who do not see a need to obey firearms laws in New York are creating a demand.

#3 The "gun show loophole" is irrelevant. The scam could have also been supplied by legal gun purchases at gun shops. The sales and purchases in NYC were illegal and most purchasers & sellers are being charged - minus the stoolies, Feds and well connected folks.
A person in NYC could get on a bus to anywhere and legally purchased a gun if they wanted. These purchasers paid 2 times the value of the guns because they were not legal purchasers or they wanted a gun with no paper trail so it could be used illicitly - likely both. The guns were sold in NYC because there are a lot of criminals there with many potential unarmed victims.
