How many each year in the US, something like 17,000?

And in states where guns are embraced, the percentages of gun suicides
is much higher.

"Matthew Warren, the son of evangelical megachurch pastor Rick Warren
who committed suicide last week, killed himself with an unregistered
gun he had bought online, the pastor said on Thursday.

"Someone on the Internet sold Matthew an unregistered gun. I pray he
seeks God's forgiveness. I forgive him. #MATTHEW 6:15," the pastor
tweeted, referencing a Biblical passage about the forgiveness of
sins."

What the hell doe any of this have to do with the suicide?

The Japanese, who the "gun safety" people love to point to, have a
much higher suicide rate than the US with virtually no guns.
Since you brought up the internet, I will remind you that a quick
Google search will give you dozens of ways to "punch out" without a
gun.

Perhaps the issue is that some people who want to die want to take a
lot of others with them.

Having nothing to do with this story

BTW I am still not sure how you legally buy a gun on the internet. How
do they deliver the gun? Interstate sales and sales through the mail
have been illegal for 45 years.

Not if you order through a dealer online.

Bull****, the only way you can order a gun from another state is to
have it shipped to an FFL in your state, where you pick it up, after
the background check and the 4473.
Any FFL selling a gun still has to log the transaction in his bound
book, even if it is a private sale from his own collection and he
needs to run the background check.
I posted a link to the law on the ATF web site a week or two ago.

Try again.

What is a legal internet sale?

I thought you could order genuine antique firearms and modern black
powder firearms directly. I could be wrong about this. I sold a shotgun
once through an online auction to a fellow in Nebraska, and the auction
site was clear the firearm had to be shipped to an FFL there.
