i have learned IF ANYONE ASKS THEY CAN BE TOLD NO. if you are told or demanded then it is safe to worry....
It's always been that way as long as I've had my license,
Purchase more than 3 handguns in a month, expect a visit.
I used to be you couldn't buy more than TWO from the same dealer or he was REQUIRED to report the purchases, and that rule still stands,
But now they are putting purchases together by SSN, and by firearm type in the computers databases.
If you live in Indiana and buy up a bunch of rim fire rifles, it's no biggie.
Live in Arizona and buy up a bunch of big bore handguns or semi-auto center fire rifles, expect a visit.
Oh yeah and anyone still saying 4473 is not a form of registration is fooling themselves.
As long as private sales of firearms remain legal the 4473 is no means of registering anything. If they pass laws to close the so called "gun show loophole", then the 4473s may be considered a registration issue.

you could buy 50 semi auto rifles and all they would know is that you bought A long gun.
If this is true then how did my name come up?

3 semi-auto pistols purchased from the same FFL within a week
50 long guns sold to an individual from one FFL, 200 or so miles from the boarder will likely get looked into. While I agree this should not happen, I would be surprised if it did not.
You don't know much about the justice system in this country, do you? It takes a prosecutor and a judge too to get things moving in that direction.
By law, the only info retained by the computer system is the NICS transaction number, and the type of gun sold, IE Hangdgun, long gun ect. All other info has to be deleted within 24 hours of the transaction, unless it was a delayed transaction.
A half hour later I noticed an "unmarked" Crown Vic parked 100 yards from my drive in the park near my house.

Call Dominos and have them deliver two large supreme pizzas to them.
I just received this email from a friend. He is a well respected, hard working Texan/American:
"BRIAN, JUST HAD 2 ATF OFFICERS LEAVE MY HOUSE WANTING TO SEARCH MY GUN SAFE AND TAKE DOWN SERIAL NUMBERS DUE TO THE FACT I HAVE PURCHASED A LOT OF GUNS LATELY. NICE GUYS AND YOU KNOW I AM A STRONG SUPPORTER OF LAW ENFORCEMENT BUT APPARENTLY THE NEW ADMINISTRATION IS SENDING ATF OFFICERS TO TEXAS TO CURTAIL GUN PURCHASES THINKING THAT THERE A BUNCH OF FOLKS HERE IN TEXAS SUPPLYING THE SORRY, NO GOOD, LOW LIFE DRUG LORDS OF MEXICO. THESE OFFICERS CONDUCTED THEIR SELVES FIRST CLASS BUT I DENIED THEM TO LOOK AT MY WEAPONS. I DID NOT THINK I WOULD LIVE TO SEE THIS DAY COME BUT HERE IT IS. THE TWO OFFICERS WERE FROM COLORADO AND NEW YORK, HERE TO HELP OUT TEXAS ATF. NOTHING AGAINST THE OFFICERS BUT MY OPINION IS THAT THIS IS AN OBAMA POLITICAL MOVEMENT. A STARTLING DAY FOR ME AND MY AMERICAN AND CONSTITUTIONAL BELIEFS. JUST THOUGHT I WOULD SHARE THAT INFO WITH YOU. -REGARDS "
