This video from Copper Jacket TV, featuring an expert instructor, details the 'backdoor gun control' mechanism of the NICS prohibited persons list. It explains how this list, expanded significantly since the Obama administration, can deny firearm purchases based on a wide range of categories beyond felony convictions, including mental health adjudications, domestic violence misdemeanors, and even restraining orders. The instructor highlights the potential for arbitrary and politically motivated additions to the list, bypassing legislative processes.
This video provides a detailed walkthrough of the ATF Form 4473, explaining each section and common pitfalls. Instructors emphasize the importance of accurate information, proper identification matching residency, and understanding specific questions like ethnicity, race, and mental adjudication. It clarifies that while the Social Security Number is optional, it can aid background checks, and explains alternatives for proving residency if a driver's license doesn't match.
