When they run the background check online (or by phone) the serial number isn't included. The seller has to keep the 4473 form on their premises. So, not registration, per se.

Yeah, they dont ask much about the gun, its the gun owner they are interested in...no need to register the gun when they are registering the owners.
And if you believe they destroy the records after 90days...Ive got a screaming deal on a bridge I could sell you....
