I guess I was away for awhile, huh?
When I said "I have it", I means the dealer's name, and it means information about the firearm. That would be sent in to whatever state/fed agency collects the info. This info basically says that on that date, that firearm was owned by this dealer. That's it. No more.
Yes, this would be a flaw in the system. Although I'd like to hear more about how "they" (can you define this?) can go to all gun dealers and grab their records, assuming some of these records are in a safe, some are in safe deposit boxes, some are kept at the homes of the dealers, some are scanned and encrypted into computer files, and I can't tell you where the others are because the dealers wouldn't tell me. Do you see where this is going?
No, no, this does not affect what you have. It only affects when you sell any of them. And at that point all you have to do is create a bill of sale, and keep it in a safe place. No cost or extra driving involved.
What information do you propose that this "form" contain and with who or where does he file it?

All they would have to do is pull the "name" records from the various FFL's and, viola, instant confiscation list.

So the suggestion is that I haul all 45 of these guns into my friendly local dealer and he, out of the goodness of his heart will create, what in effect will be "Licenses" for all of them
