[Vision2020] gun shows

You do fill out "form 4473" for any gun purchase, but as someone else said, the store keeps that info. Feds only get the NICS data telling them that someone probably bought a firearm (since you could technically back out after approval). If you have a CWP the NICS is unnecessary and the Feds get absolutely no information on the sale. 

That is at least my understanding from talking to FFLs, first hand experience, and doing some research.

(the last omitted if in possession of a current valid CWP) You would garner far more respect if you would just man up and admit you haven't a clue what you're talking about when it comes to firearms ownership in Idaho (or anywhere else)

If you purchased the weapon through a private sale they will contact the original purchaser and then follow the chain of ownership. The cops aren't as stupid as you make them out to be.

Each form has my name and the serial number of the firearm, thereby linking it to me.  Is that in a state or national database? I don't know. I'm not a gun dealer, just a buyer and owner.
