The application notes that “any false oral or written statement ... is a crime punishable as a felony under federal law.” To lie in order to acquire a weapon that you are legally forbidden to have is, as the form notes, punishable by up to 10 years in prison and a $250,000 fine
Plus being another 5 years for being a druggy in possession of a gun- which is what he lied about
