They don't, so it won't.

Straw purchases are illegal, thus they fall under the black market.  The very first question on the NICS form is confirming that you are purchasing this firearm for yourself and no one else.  You raise a good point though, how about actually enforcing existing laws on illegal gun possession and purchases instead of proposing new ones that won't affect the murder rate at all?  Novel concept I know.

Straw purchases send profits directly back to gun manufacturers.

So the answer is yes, criminal demand is a sector of the gun market.

Since it is, limiting that demand will limit profits from that sector.

Do gun manufacturers' donations to the NRA pay for themselves when they enable the NRA to limit laws which limit profits?

Do gun manufacturers do the math, or are they mainly concerned about "rights"?
