I mean, I have no idea. The person I acted as a reference for I know very well. If someone lied to the screening officer then that should absolutely be a crime. But just acting as a reference by itself shouldn't be a crime, imo, even if the person does subsequently commit a crime with the gun. I never promised the government my friend wouldn't commit crimes, I just answered their questions honestly and they decided whether he was qualified to own a firearm.
