Does anyone know where I can download the form that you fill out when you buy a firearm? It's for a co-worker who is anti-gun and thinks that it's too easy to buy a gun from a dealer, I just want to show him that they check for a lot more things than just a felony conviction. It probably won't do any good but I'm tired of listening to this "expert" who has never bought a gun in his life.

Thanks,

Why not get it directly from the source?

Thank's again torozmaster, What is this delay you speak of? If you're as busy as I am you have to make an appointment to pass gas! [>:/]  L.O.L. Like I said; it probably won't do any good, but at least now my anyi-gun friend can argue with the ATF and let my ears rest.

Thank's to you too robarth, but the forms on the ATF's websight have the word "SAMPLE" across some of the more important questions, and this would just lead to more arguements from my co-worker as to the interpretation of said questions.

You guys are great,

Tommy T.

Hey thanks for posting this, it does look a little different than the one I filled out for some reason, maybe its the color.

They just changed to a new format.  It has check boxes and it isnt a 3 foot long paper.  It is now in booklet form.  Also you will note- there is an "other" box along with Handgun and Long gun.

I know, he's one of those people who always has to be right, and if he can't be right, he at least has to get the last word in. I gave the form to him today and he looked at me and said: "You have to fill out all this!?"  when I told him no, just the first page, the dealer does the rest, he said "Hmmm"  and I haven't heard from him sinse. It was like magic.
