I don’t believe there is any dealer that sells guns, that doesn’t record your name and the weapons serial number. I got a muzzle-loader mail order, but there is still a paper trail if someone wanted to really find out. Every weapon I own, is recorded somewhere except for 3 long guns and 1 revolver.
Yes, but it is not registration per se.
IOW, there is no data base that they can reference to find out who owns what, at least on a Fed level.
Unfortunately here in Clark Co., hand guns are registered with in the County, the rest of Nevada it is not required.
Walk in to a Cabela's store, or Gander Mountain, Wal*Mart, or any of several other places with a big wad of cash. Go to the firearms section, pick up a boxed muzzle-loader, a can of pyrodex, a box of bullets, and a box of caps. You may have to get some of that from behind a counter, but it matters little. Pay for the lot with your big wad of cash.
Viola! You have a muzzleloader, with ammunition, and NO paper trail.
