I gave them my SSN... my only thought is that Cabelas entered something wrong, but they aren’t about to run a background check again on me just to make sure (I asked).
I probably buy six or seven firearms each year for the last five years or so. I never put my social security number on the ATF 4473 form, it is optional. Never been denied, but I do have my Concealed Carry Permit in KY and I am checked every month in KY. I made the mistake of buying two handguns the same day once, won't do that again. Separate paper work goes to the county sheriff in that case.
