The crooks buy their guns in Indiana, which has lenient gun laws.

New York State has stringent gun laws on the books, and crooks evade those laws  by going to Virginia, which has soft gun laws. What happens? A crook in Staten Island has about a 220-mile drive to Arlington, Virginia and back Of course that is a difficult 220 miles due to traffic, but if one really wants a gun while living in New York City but can;t get a gun in New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Delaware, or Maryland... Virginia gun dealers need not heed New York state laws that do not apply in Virginia.

A huge proportion of guns confiscated after crimes in New York is shown to have been purchased in Virginia.

I would be willing to have a federal law that prohibits the sale of firearms to non-residents of one's states. Thus if you are an Illinois resident you must buy your firearm in Illinois and not in Indiana. If Illinois laws prohibit one from buying a firearm, then tough luck.

The analogy to the repeal of Prohibition applies: one is not allowed to import alcoholic beverages into a state in violation of those states' laws.
