I posted here under this forum, "laws and legislation"  because I could not find the state legislation, i looked and I am thankful someone can navigate quicker through the laws than i can in a matter of seconds.  Of course I knew this article exists, that's why I posted here, i.e. original post.  I felt like this was the place to post about "straw purchases" , under laws and legislation simply for the matter of someone else's knowledge to reference where the state stands, to answer my question.  Thank you for your research and your time.  You answered my question.

69-2422.
Obtaining handgun for prohibited transfer; violation; penalty.

For purposes of sections 69-2401 to 69-2425, any person who knowingly and intentionally obtains a handgun for the purposes of transferring it to a person who is prohibited from receipt or possession of a handgun by state or federal law shall be guilty of a Class IV felony.

    Laws 1991, LB 355, § 21;
    Laws 1996, LB 1055, § 8.

Law was amended last in 1996 so it was not  a recent development and it only applies to handguns

toddamah.  Thanks for your question.  IF you don't know the answer , nor where to find credible information, there is no such thing as a stupid question.
And yes this section was the best place to ask your question.  I'm sorry some of the old dogs get 'snippy' when the new dogs come around.  ;) 

Your were right to come here and ask away.  Tons better than FaceBook knowitalls.
I recently got caught up in a Facebook discussion about purchasing a firearm for a spouse.  Too many people called it a straw purchase/ arms trafficking, etc. Make her get a permit and buy her own, etc etc.  Oh my the Stupid cup over floweth on that one!
