Thanks for the explanation Gobble.

See that Bricktop? I'm not crazy! laugh
Noooooo, the law in Tennessee doesn't state squat about "running" the firearm.

"(4) The gun dealer shall request by telephone that the Tennessee bureau of investigation conduct a criminal history record check on the purchaser and shall provide the following information to the bureau:

(A) The federal firearms license number of the gun dealer;
(B) The business name of the gun dealer;
(C) The place of transfer;
(D) The name of the person making the transfer;
(E) The make, model, caliber and manufacturer's number of the firearm being transferred;"

It states a "criminal history record check on the purchaser" will be conducted, but doesn't state any checks are to be run on the firearms purchased. This mirrors the BATFE form 4473, which asks for the serial number, make, model, description, etc.
