How accurate is gun registration information?

I have several guns which were purchased more than fifty years ago, long before computers existed. Do you think the old registration records are in the national database? I just want to know which guns I will have to surrender when the government confiscates guns.

    First. There has never been a national data base of gun owners. Only a data base of reported stolen guns.

    Second. The paperwork that is fille out when you buy a gun is normally kept in the records of the dealer. When the dealer goes out of business they are surrended to the BATFE.

    Unless the BATFE has been scanning and creating a data base behind our backs - the records of all our old purchases are in some governemnt warehouse, or the dealers storage area - gathering dust and mold.

    I seriously doubt that any for yours were registered. The federal government has no firearm registration except for NFA firearms and most guns in most states are not registered either.

    There is no gun confiscation planned for anything in the foreseeable future.

    as long as you haven't moved or changed your name due to marital status changes... it'll be accurate.

    but calling it a database is a big stretch... it's more like boxes of papers stacked in some warehouse.

    only stateside (done by state, separate from federal system) registration is actually more than just killing millions of trees. the California dros is mostly digital, with records going back 85 years, mostly searchable. obviously if your name changed or you moved it's not very effective, but it's alot more accessible than pallets of paper in a warehouse.

    資料來源: asked several LGS (local gun stores) how they keep their 4473's. figured worst case my gun is lost, my data is destroyed, there'd be a copy at the LGS i bought it from. yes they'd have a record a sale... if you can find it!

    Guns are not registered. And the reason why liberal freedom haters push for it is because what records they have are out of date sales records run by the ATF which is pretty inept at doing anything right. Don't worry about it

    No, records were not kept after about five years. They were only kept by the dealer that sold the gun. A fifty year old gun would not be in ANY registration database. Unless it was used in a crime

    Most guns are not registered now and none except NFA items were registered back then. Serial numbers were not even required back then.

    Form 4473's are kept for 20 years.

  • A lot would depend upon where they were registered.

    I don't think you have anything to worry about.
