Original Note:
Pursuant to federal law, retailers are required to submit an ATF 4473 and NICS check on potential purchasers prior to final sale. Contrary to the claim made at :17, one does NOT just walk out of a gun shop with an AR-15 in hand "10 minutes later". https://www.fbi.gov/how-we-can-help-you/more-fbi-services-and-information/nics#:~:text=NICS%20is%20FBI%27s%20national%20system%20that%20checks%20records,persons%20who%20may%20be%20disqualified%20from%20receiving%20firearms. https://www.atf.gov/firearms/atf-form-4473-faqs
