Umm,.. all guns I have bought in the past couple years have been registered at time of purchase,.. or so I have thought. Thats why you get that nice little registration card in the mail.

Yes. Unless the federales terminate the gun registry, you are still legally obliged to register new long guns.

We all hope they will get rid of this costly and ineffective means of keeping track of all of the law abiding, gun toting peasants in the country. Regardless of what they say they will do, they are politicians. What they say they will do and what they actually get around to doing are two entirely different things. We have another minority gov. so I think we are fubar. I'm not that confident they'd actually get rid of it even if they had a enough seats to vote it out.

Ya that's what I was thinking,.. the last 2 rifles I bought everything was done at time of purchase and you receive all papers and your specific gun card as well a short while later in the mail.
