For decades I've been saying the 4473 is a registration form.
Oh, get over yourself. Nobody listens to you.
(Or me.)
I still remember the first proto-4473 when I bought a rifle up in Boulder. It was just a mimeographed little 8 1/2 X 11 form on one side distributed to the dealers. It was basically an "are you a naughty boy?" form. I recall having to sign a similar form for ammunition about the same time.
Same old strategy we've never been able to counter. "They" propose ABCDE and F. "We" object. "They" compromise by removing DE and F.
"We" walk away all self-satisfied.
But we're still stuck with ABC.
And as time wears on, they attempt to add GHIJ and K since the principle has been established.
"We" object and they remove IJ and K.
And now we're only stuck with ABCGH.
Huzzah for bipartisanship.
It will never end until they get Z.
