    What exactly did they put for question 18b.? According to the instructions on the 4473, the licensee may attach a copy of the documentation, rather than record the type of documentation used.

    Disregard that, I reread your post. Seems to me that he recorded the info instead of photocopying it. Either would have sufficed. It does not require both, so you should tell them to pound sand. IMHO IANAL

    If there are federal requirement that need to be met by you, the feds will let you know.

    From here on out, I'd just ignore them (Wal-Mart, that is).

    Id tell them any further correspondence should be in writing and they need to be careful about harassing you. If they contend that you have broken the law, then they should contact the proper LEO and stop harassing you. Document every phone call.

    Thats exactly my point, either would have sufficed, and suffice it did when the clerk documented it on the 4473. They dont need the photocopies nor do they need to say that they will call the atf!

    Wal-Mart is in CYA mode. Don't respond, and find another W-M to shop at.

    And don't worry about the feds. In the highly unlikely event that you are contacted, you have other utility bills since then to show them to prove residency, or if need be, you can contact the utility for copies. The utility will probably tell you how to access the copies on line.

    But DO NOT worry about the W-M dipshits. There is no federal law to which they allude. As stated above, it's THEIR problem. At the time you bought the gun, W-M was given an Approval Number by the PA Instant Check System. The PA State Police said at that time you were good to go, and you still are. Fuggedaboudit.

    Sounds to me like another Minimum Wage Slave power trip event. If the Barney Fife security dork is so knowledgeable, then why isn't he working in the law someplace instead of being a goofball Wallyworld rent-a-cop? Stupid amateur extra legal smug bastards!

    As the other posters said . . . Find another Walmart store and don't worry about it. If anybody should get looked at by the ATF it's those stooges at that Walmart store.

    And this is why (among other reasons) I won't buy guns at China-mart. To actually expect their minimum wage employees (slaves might be more accurate) to understand something as important as a 4473 and the associated regulations regarding firearms sales is too much to ask.

    Walmart employees can't even keep track of where the key to the Ammo case is and people expect them to fill out ATF forms properly?

    I guess some have more faith in the minimum wage dregs than others.

    They(walmart) are the ones that will get introuble if something on the forms is filled out wrong, so you should have offered to call and report it yourself.
