Uh. Ummm... Hello... This is the Central Scrutinizer... I am here to protect all of you from breaking all the laws that haven't been written yet... Like listening to music, and having relations with the opposite sex, and similar criminal behaviors...

They have no way of knowing that. I have an FFL--when the NICS are called in, we are asked whether it's a long gun, or a handgun. This is due to the age 21 requirement for handguns. As long as I have my FFL the FBI will never know who bought what caliber, etc. I do have to turn in my 4473's (yellow form) when I go out of business. I have no doubt they are
[size=5]EVERYONE that has bought a .223 weapon![/size=5] |

Records under the Brady Bill have been kept all along in violation of Federal law. The "Law" does not apply to govt. agencies. This is done for your "protection" from evildoers. Please do not question govt. decisions imbro, it makes many on this board uneasy. Thank you for your attention.....

I don't buy it. The only way the feds can get gun purchase records is from FFLs that retire/go out of business. They can track a specific gun by using the serial number to go to the manufacturer/distributor/dealer then scare the FFL into telling them who bought a gun, but to get a list of everyone who bought a 223, I don't see how they could do it.
The NICS check would tell that you bought a gun but not what kind. I don't have to have a NICS check done because of the background check for my pistol permit, at least not for a couple of years I guess, so unless someone went to my FFL and made him turn over his book, no one would know I've bought any guns. |

There was one gun dealer who destroyed all his 4473 forms and made it look like a break in. He got away with it to, but then after getting arrested in a whole militia scandal they found out. I never buy at stores, I know the 4473 is gonna be safe with the dealer, but who knows when the ATF or FBI will confinscate them.

In PA, the only guns that they can track are handguns... The PA State Police is keeping an illegal registry of ALL handgun purchases... It's just a matter of time 'till this is extended to rifles and shotguns... Of course, the ATF can come in at ANY time, and take as many 4473's as they want... I also suspect this will be the demise of gunshows, sometime down the road... Sure doesn't help any having Ed Rendell running for PA Governer... Gives me a sick feeling in my gut... |

No the ATF/FBI does not have a list of what you bought. The dealer has the 4473 untill he/she closes shop. |

I'm willing to bet you can chalk this up to a case of an FBI agent talking out his ass. The FBI likes to maintain this "ultimate of crime-fighting" front. From an investigatory standpoint, the FBI is a fucking joke. If you pay real close attention to major cases they take credit for solving pure dumb luck and state/local agency (meaning your friendly local cop or trooper) proficiency are what really solved the case. The FBI is REALLY good at PR that started back in the days of Hoover. In reality, they couldn't catch a cold in the middle of a Siberian winter. This "database" is being reported because it makes the majority of th sheeple feel comfortable that the omniscient FBI will catch the bad guy and make everything hunkydoory again. Of course, the more astute are fucking terrified by the thought that the FBI illegally keeps information on everyone, but believe me, people like us are a pretty smal minority.

The serial number is recorded on the 4473 and the state form (in VA). The second page of the state form is sent to the State police, but that page has the firearm info blocked out. |

The FBI could have accessed the Maryland fire arms registry records, I belive the ar15 is required to be registered in that state just like a hand gun. And then claimed to have used their own info in error. But you are right they keep information on every one, like it or not. |

We are NOT asked anything other than "long gun or handgun?" |

Hey colt_5_5_6
I work in a shop in Maryland. The Colt H-bar is the only AR15 that is considered a sporting rifle. All others are listed as AW restricted and require you to do the MD state app and wait 7 days. Some people on this site have stated that some shops here only require the 4473 for any make heavy barrel as long as it is a post-ban. I know that we have to send the MD state police both of the pages from the state form once you pick up the firearm and sign it. What they do with them is still a mystery to us. |
