Gun Laws

Ok - I'm going to try and reword this post as the last one didn't get any responses. If I'm in the wrong forum please feel free to suggest where I may post this.

I'm looking to buy a new XD from an online auction type of place. I know when the seller ships it it must go through a FFL, and I have a local shop that will do that for me (for a fee of course). If I buy it and it goes through the FFL shop I know they call my info in; fine (not that I have a real choice).

Now once they call me in is that gun/gun's serial number always tied to me or is it known that I just purchased a gun?

I wish I could find out how my purchases are tracked, do the sellers (when a private gun shop) keep the records, etc. etc.

Not looking to troll, steal, pillage, massacre or anything illegal - just would be nice to know I have at least one gun Mrs. Obama Clinton won't know about come Jan 09.

Thanks.

If every gun owner voted as if they wanted to keep their guns, we would never have to worry about losing them.

A good read....

The dealer keeps a copy the paperwork from the transfer and the FBI also keeps a record of your background check. The FBI, by law, cannot use those records for anything but the background check. They still keep the records, though. I'm pretty sure BATFE gets a copy of the transf paperwork somewhere down the line as well.

Short answer is...There are records of your transaction.

To my knowledge, yes, they keep a record of it. The ATF form you fill out gets sent in with the serial number of your new purchase. That way if they ever find your gun somewhere at a crime scene, they can ask you about it. I believe that's one of the regulations with the FFL.

That's also one of the things people/liberals get upset about with gun shows, in that there is no record of the transfer.

A good reason to buy from private sellers, the Feds don't know what you have...

Side question....

Why don't you want the gov't to know you have a gun?

He ran ads pushing for gun locks at home, supports an assault rifle ban, supports background checks at gun shows, supports requiring child safety locks on all new guns... if you're a single-issue voter, vote for someone else. McCain is a liberal in republican clothing.
