Who else likes not registering firearms?

[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Who else likes not registering firearms?

Posted: 8/24/2006 2:12:07 AM EDT

Just went to a gun show recently and paid cash for a 3 gun trifecta. Pistol, rifle and SG.

Cash after a hagle on price (of course) and out the door I went. Thanks and have fun type of deal.

I'm not a felon or ever will be, I hope. But it's nice knowing I have a few guns not on the list.

I buy around 4-6 guns a year, mostly at gunshows for this purpose saving my dough for what I need and want.

Will/Do you regularly register firearms after a private purchase?

Why?

The gunshow loophole?

What's this register shit you're talking about?

Why would I register a firearm after I've bought it, and with whom should I do this? The clique squad?

I don't know about where you live but in IL buying at a gunshow is the same as buying at a store (i.e. waiting period, NICS, paperwork, etc.).

Do you know how to post a response w/o being lame? You've got to be the biggest little boy here that's packing ANY heat.

I am not too concerned about filling out 4473s. I do like being able to carry without a permit, though...that is nice

The waiting period sucks. Especially at a gun show.

What the fuck are you talking about?

No one "registers" firearms in the US after they buy them, unless they live in a state with weird laws.

If you buy a "registered" NFA firearm, the transfer has to be approved before you can take possession of the firearm, so the "registration" is already done.

It's not a lame response...

Thier IS NO GUN REGISTRATION in most states.

When you buy from a dealer, you are not "registering" your gun by filling out the 4473.

Registering your gun is taking it to the local PD, filling out forms...etc

What you are talking about is buying a gun private sale with no ATF paperwork, which is legal in most, but not all states.

Are you high, stupid, or a mixture of both?

You more than likely do not have to register it. As long as it is not an MG.

I have a lot of people at work and what not who know I know a lot about guns ask me about a gun they 1) found 2) inherited 3) bought from a friend and what they need to do to register it. That is always my answer (unless they live in the City of Dayton)

Most ppl think that when your calling in the 4473 that the NICs ask for the make/model/serial of the gun that's being purchased and that's far from the truth. All they want to know if it's a long gun, pistol or if you're buying both.

What's so bad about registering? I hear on this site all the time that the Constitution gives you no right to privacy.

No, no, Mr. Medium-Rare of the 89 Posts.

Keep poking swingset.

But you might want to get a laundry basket to carry your head around in.

Yes but you're in the UK where there is registration. There is no such animal (at least at the Federal level) here.

The problem is that police and ATF have made 4473's a defacto registration.

Anyone remember that during the "Beltway Sniper" incident that owners of AR-15's were getting visits by police and their AR-15's seized?

Anyone remember "Operation Forward Trace" in which ATF went to dealers and copied their 4473's and pages of bound book related to AR-15's, Mini-14's, and other "assault weapons"? What do you think happened to all of that info?

When a dealer goes out of business and sends in his records, what do you think happens to those 4473's? I'll tell you... they are scanned into a computer. They are not sitting in some warehouse with neat labels on the ends of boxes. A database was created with your name and info on it. You and your AR-15 were "registered".

+1. We here in the Ohio crew use them as reactive targets at shoots he hosts.

Around here, it is illegal to cash and carry at a gun show. If you are on the show premises, you must do a 4473 and background check.

What if you arrange to buy it at the show, but pay for it and take possession off site?

EDIT: Assumming that you're not buying it from an FFL, of course.

Curiously there is a thread on that subject in the CO hometown forum...

The last time I bought a gun from a friend, he was like "make sure to get that changed into your name, okay?"

I argued with him for about 10 minutes and finally just told him I would do it
