翻了一整天的各州和联邦法条和atf的规定和定义，觉得还是分享出来说不定会对大家有所帮助。
首先是今天无意看到的atf关于hunting license购枪的要求：
May a nonimmigrant alien who has been admitted to the United States under a nonimmigrant visa and who falls within an exception, purchase a firearm or ammunition in the United States?
A nonimmigrant alien without residency in any state may not purchase and take possession of a firearm. A nonimmigrant alien may only purchase a firearm through a licensee where the licensee arranges to have the firearm directly exported. A nonimmigrant alien who falls within an exception may, however, purchase and take possession of ammunition. A nonimmigrant alien who has established residency in a state may purchase and take possession of a firearm from an unlicensed person, provided the buyer and seller are residents of the same state, and no other state or local law prohibits the transaction. A nonimmigrant alien with residency in a state may purchase a firearm from a licensee, provided the sale complies with all applicable laws and regulations. [18 U.S.C. 922(a)(9); 27 CFR 478.29a]
正如有的朋友所说，不建立residency，有hunting license 买枪也违法。所以，那atf对于residence 定义是什么样的呢？
State of residence.
The State in which an individual resides. An individual resides in a State if he or she is present in a State with the intention of making a home in that State. If an individual is on active duty as a member of the Armed Forces, the individual's State of residence is the State in which his or her permanent duty station is located, as stated in 18 U.S.C. 921(b). The following are examples that illustrate this definition:
只列出含alien的例子
EXAMPLE 3.
A, an alien, travels to the United States on a three-week vacation to State X. A does not have a state of residence in State X because A does not have the intention of making a home in State X while on vacation. This is true regardless of the length of the vacation.
EXAMPLE 4.
A, an alien, travels to the United States to work for three years in State X. A rents a home in State X, moves his personal possessions into the home, and his family resides with him in the home. A intends to reside in State X during the 3-year period of his employment. A is a resident of State X.
也就是说，你就算租的房子，就算你刚开始就打算只带三年，你只要拖家带口的就在这住下了，那你就是这的resident。感觉这里的residence更贴近于jurisdiction上面的residence，有种法律上你归谁管你就是那的residence。（非法律意见）
以下是个人对az事件的看法：
那问题来了，按照这个定义，az的那些留学生都满足啊，residence hunting license有啥毛病？
所以从这个角度看，az那个事件的留学生买residence HL是符合联邦层面定义的residence，但是恰巧州层面不认可，所以导致州层面买residence HL 违法，进而导致以此购买的枪支不合法。
通俗来讲就是，atf说虽然我觉得你是residence，但是az说你不是，而你的hl又是az州发的，那你就得买人家的non residence HL，你现在买了residence hl，那就构成州层面上的欺诈违法，然后用有问题的hl来买枪，那虽然现在你residence没问题，但你hl有问题了呀。。。虽然自始至终我一直觉得你是residence。。。。。
