if you bought a firearms via NICS
NICS is just a background check. The 4473 form is the one that FFL dealers have to keep records of that list your information and the gun that you purchased. On the bright side, those records can be disposed of after 20 yrs.

I know and understand that. I'm trying to convey the point that if you go through that process, then there is a paper trail on your purchase. I can spell out all the detail, but there really is no point.
I'm an avid firearms enthusiast and collector. And yeah I've been labeled as a "gun nut, "survivalist"', "radical"' etc. But the truth is that I just really don't trust our govt not to use incrementalist tactics to eventually use those records to come to my house to collect or say that I own "too many" or whatever.
Call me paranoid, but paranoia is only reality on a finer scale. So I make it a point to buy the bulk of my weaponry without going through all the paperwork motions.
I mean, technically you guys are right in the sense that there is no "registration" process set up by the federal govt. But the system is still in place to where they can use that information however they see fit and potentially flag you as a problem. David koresch could probably explain it better than I can.
Also, I've had a lot of coffee this morning.
