Not only why would I want to fill out a 4473 but why should I have to fill out a 4473 to retrieve my legally owned merchandise?
A state representative in Louisiana this session tried to pass HB 408 which: “Provides for the creation of the “Louisiana Voluntary Do Not Sell List”
HB 408 quickly died in committee. Note the word “list”.

In reply to JimB. JimB, Yeah, that's what I said, above. You can see how well that was received by the replies.

In reply to Felix. No, Felix, I'm not trying to control anybody. Anyone who wants to do something stupid is free to do so. And I am free to point out that it's stupid. See how this whole 1A thing works?

In reply to LampOfDiogenes. Then it is stupid for you. Good thing you don't speak for everybody, let alone control everybody. You wouldn't be trying to control everybody, would you? Cuz that would be even stupider.

Why the hell would I want to fill out a 4473 and ask the ATF’s permission to take guns that I already own home?

It’s failing because it’s completely asinine.

In reply to LampOfDiogenes. let's say you are going through a messy divorce and your vindictive spouse accuses you of domestic violence. until that is resolved you are now a prohibited person in many states. today your option is to sell your guns or turn them into law enforcement. thanks to "hold my guns" now you have another choice. it's not stupid; it's great. more ffls should participate and offer this service.

Of what value is a “defensive firearm” kept in storage somewhere away from your home (in a location that is only open during business hours)??? When gun safes are becoming (relatively) cheap? I, and every gun owner I know personally, owns a gun safe or other secure storage option – for guns not required to be immediately available for use in home/personal defense (which MUST be accessible basically instantly to be of any damn value). Yeah, I keep my home defense pistol in my damn nightstand at night. Don’t like that? Stay the f*ck out of my house, and it won’t be a problem for either of us.

This whole idea seems, frankly, rather stupid to me.
