I wouldn't be surprised. No ones tracking how many guns a guy buys. If a guy is clean but has ties to criminals and can get good money buying and selling guns to them why wouldn't they? Low chance they get caught IMO, without a registry in place.
With that SKS its more likely it WAS purchased legally and was either stolen from the original owner or someone the shooter knew owned it and either gave it to him or he swiped it from the residence. A gun you can get here in Alberta for 200 bucks retail isn't worth trying to smuggle over the border IMO.
