Earlier this week the US Supreme Court unanimously ruled that convicted felons can sell or transfer their firearms through a third party instead of relinquishing the guns to government custody. The ruling was in favor of former US Border Patrol agent Tony Henderson, who wished to turn over his collection of 19 firearms to his wife after he was convicted of selling marijuana in 2006.

Justices agreed that third parties, such as gun dealers, would have to make proper assurances to maintain custody of the firearms and keep them away from the felon.
