Maybe.. doesn’t negate the fact that used good is less valuable than New… also 4473 only takes 15 minsSome people don’t want to buy new from a store where they have to fill out a 4473, even if they can pass the NICS check. In some cases they are willing to pay a little more to buy from a private party.
I also don’t believe that you have to be the original purchaser to get factory coverage for any defects of the firearm.
