    The NRA specifically lobbied to prohibit digital databasing of guns, gun owners, and gun sales. All gun traces are done by filing through paper copies of form 4473.

        correct, it’s needfully inefficient because people are opposed to an easily searchable database of gunowners

          No, gun owners are opposed to gun owner databases because then they might be held accountable for their reckless and/or antisocial attitude towards their weapons.
