Per ATF, non-licensees are not required to keep paperwork on firearm transfers. There is nothing they can do to you. You bought the gun legally under federal and local gun laws. You had no way of telling it was stolen.
The simple answer to this problem is for ATF/.gov to allow civilians access to NCIS computers to run gun serial numbers. It can be set up similar to the FFL EZ Check for checking dealer licenses. The state of Florida already does this ( Stolen Guns Search ), but it is needed on a federal level.
