You filled out a form 4472 that certified that you weren't crazy (as if you are qualified to self diagnose), you aren't a felon (because felons don't lie on government forms), and gave your name and address and all of that. That form, stays in a book that resides with the dealer. The BATF can inspect it, but by federal law, they can't keep a list of who bought what (not that they wouldn't break the law either).

The background check goes to a clerk who does an NCIC check. Federal law, once again, forbids keeping records of exactly who got the background check.

I'd rather know all those details than be able to deliver a baby... I've seen that done. Wimmenz are strong.

Well, I didn’t know how that worked and thought I did. I thought when the guy did the background check that all my info. answering those questions went to the govn. and they knew right then what gun I bought. Thanks for that info. because that makes me feel better.

I can never be tested to see if I am sane because I know all the right answers to those questions and ink blots to “look” sane since I’ve given many hundreds of them. You, however.....
