Part of the Brady Law was the introduction of Instant Check as soon as possible with the caveat that records would be destroyed at the end of the day or until the request was Approved or Denied.

I have called on NICS that had been written incorrectly and hte answer I recieved was .."Have the purchaser fill out another as we do not have records of that transaction."

Chuckie wants the records kept to trace SS#'s, if provided. It's the only real ID number included on the 4473 as there is little other information to glean from that data.

No offense, but they don’t need SSNs to track who has what, after you look at all the information you have to give them on those forms. They have a plethora of information to tag/track someone with even if they don’t get an SSN.
