New NICS Checks Recording Specific Firearm Information?

Ridefar

I was informed by my FFL dealer yesterday that the ATF recently informed him that when a dealer calls in a NICS check after some point this year, that more than "handgun" or "long gun" questions will be asked.

They will be asking for serial number, make,model and caliber.

Kind of sounds like registration does it not?

Trump's BATFE is no better than that of any other big government politician.
Worse in some cases.
This being one.
Federal and State Governments want to know what you own.  At present all they can do is record what you buy.  There will be knocks on the door to complete the registration process in due time.  No need to rush into this, as those that care and/or understand seem to be dying off faster than they are being replaced.
