Here's a short story from New Zealand. A journalist faked gun licensing paperwork to prove how easy it is to buy a firearm with forged documents, only to end up in hot water. Hopefully, this doesn't end up like the David Gregory incident a few years back were he wasn't prosecuted due to a shared sense of sympathy amongst gun controllers in the District of Columbia.

For those that don't remember: http://www.usnews.com/news/articles/2015/01/23/david-gregory-arrest-affidavit-nbc-knew-he-would-violate-dc-gun-law

Here's a copy of David Gregory's arrest affidavit that was "declined": http://www.judicialwatch.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/Jacobson-v-DC-Gregory-arrest.pdf

Gun controllers should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law in situations like these.
