Purchasing Firearms; Are we asking to be Registered?

Well, here's another question. Since I don't own that many guns (compared to a lot of folks here), and most have been purchased from dealers, what's the downside of having "receipts" showing that I sold them when it became obvious what was going to happen?
I have no plans to just roll over, but am just trying to come up with solutions to a problem that hasn't _yet_ quite materialized.

Reread my above post which outlines the difference between the "nicey nice" plan and the "more than likely" plan. A nicey nice plan would require an illegal as hell confiscation warrant that would have your "registered" (anything purchased through FFL/4473/NICS) hardware listed. That's what they want, that's all they could possibly ask for (the things they know you have). If you've sold these items, what could they possibly do, shoot you?
If anyone needs a starting gun to fire in order to wake up, the very first "seizure" would be just that.

Paul,
I wrongly assumed that you were talking about buying a new gun from an FFL holder.?.?... I guess it isn't illegal for the customer, just for him. That's what makes it a challenge buying new w/out a paper trail IMHO. I didn't make it clear, but person to person is what I should have said, albeit new gun. Glad you brought up the topic. Its one that goes unmentioned, (and unanswered), all too often.

That's right. Now that they are mostly certain that you can't shoot back...
