"Which is why my weapons are registered as they're supposed to be." There are only 2-3 states that require registration of firearms, and there are laws against the feds. haveing any type of registration.

The yellow form(4473) that you fill out when purchising a firearm remains in the possesion of the dealer, if BATFE wants to see them then they must have a warrent to do so. And if they want to copy one they must bring a copy machine to the shop, they can not, by law, be removed from the dealers possesion.

At one time you were required to sign a purchase form when buying ammunition. This form recorded your name, address, TDL, and ammo bought by caliber. That was stopped 30 or so years ago as being unneeded.
