you volunteered to sit down in their store with a phone and call every one on their log books and have a little chat with them. I know mine didn't mind, I reached over 200 people today. About 40 percent said they didn't know what to do. After a little chat most stated they would get right on it and also said they would call all their friends as well. (at my reccomendation)
Maybe your local FFL wouldn't mind if

^^ about the 2a battle ?
They either have it in their log book, (regs and non) their database or you can work of 4473's. Mine had it all in his software. Helps if you know your guy well, I did all his security work, so he has to trust you, you have access to socials, etc. I am a "employee" just spreading the word for "your" benefit "customer sir".
Seems that info shouldnt just be for the State Police...

If my FFL ever let you have access to that information, I would never shop there again.

Pretty sure this is a misuse of info and violates privacy laws. I appreciate the sentiment, but echo Norton's feelings in this matter.
Like I said, I was an employee offering customer service. (sadley lacking these days) I received not one cross comment, most all were very thankful, the rest were "their gonna do what ever they want to.
There is fighting hard and fighting smart.
Then there is the way they fight, that I believe, is "dirty".

I don't care about the intent.
Violating one's privacy is a violation, whomever is doing it. The ends don't justify the means.
An FFL has a responsibility to protect the personal information of their customers. This is one of the exact reasons we fought the ammo logs.
An FFL who is willing to put that information out there for one person is not worthy of protecting that information from others.

If you feel that confident about the righteousness of your actions, name the business so that those of us who do not want our personal information abused can avoid that shop.

^^^ understood we just want to know whom bro
I'd be worried as that FFL. I mean if 4000 will show up in Annapolis I'm sure 40 would be at that store angry as well. Good deeds aren't always the best I've learned from here

say what?
WTF, I am close with my FFL but I would never even ask that nor do I even want to touch people's paperwork

Bull crap, my personal information is not for your eyes, how do I know this isn't a normal occurrence
I am blown away that any shop allowed someone, regardless of how much they trusted someone that referred to them self as an "employee" and not an employee.... See the difference?
And that information shouldn't be just for police... It should be private, any shop that allowed someone who did some security work to view the computer files that contained names, numbers, and social security numbers, needs to seriously reevaluate the risks they have taken. I think everyone here deserves to know what shop this was for their own safety, so they can avoid it.
