LT. what is your problem? You're still sitting up there in Washington and trying to to tell people in other states what they can and cannot do in their own state. Of course your wife could purchase a gun in Oklahoma while you were in the MILITARY and STATIONED in Oklahoma which gives her the same privileges. For Christs sakes that's already been talked about.
You don't even understand what you post as a reference in your attempt to prove a point. What the GCA advises states they can do and what the states actually do are two totally different things. Did you pay attention to this part of your reference "However, even though the GCA was amended in 1986 to allow the sale of long guns to residents of any State pursuant to the conditions cited above, many States have not yet amended their laws to reflect similar language." Gee golly........you mean some states have no intention of amending their laws just because a federal agency says they can.....not that they must, but they can. Why that smacks of a Republic huh........oh wait, we are a Republic. Take a look at how California operates. http://www.ag.ca.gov/firearms/dlrfaqs.php#14G Apparently they don't even have a bordering state policy.
I guarantee you if you do not live in a border state to Oklahoma, Oklahoma will not sell you a gun. Same goes for the state of Colorado. Oklahoma even posts a placard at all dealers that shows Oklahoma in blue, bordering states in green and the rest of the states in red. Below the picture is the words that only non-residents in those states in green may purchase a firearm at this facility. If your state is red you can not buy one. In Colorado the sales clerk at Gander Mountain wasn't sure if Oklahoma was a bordering state and had to look it up before they would sell me one.
Tell you what sport............ come on down to Oklahoma with your wallet and sea lawyer advice and if your state of residency is not a border state to Oklahoma and you do not have papers to show orders to Oklahoma, I'll match anything you got in your wallet that you won't buy a gun here from a dealer. I can always use a few extra guns.
BTW, The ATF is not a law in and of itself. They are guided by the laws from congress and as such may advise and take positions but can only enforce those laws put forth by congress. The age limit on buying a handgun is not a ATF law but a Federal law. As such I'm not aware of any laws passed in congress other than what is presently in effect concerning age and types of firearms a FFL dealer may sell or import or export. The military clause is a special section incorporated into the law as passed by congress. The state regulates all matters outside those rules at their own desecration.
