So last night my buddy (military service member) attempted to purchase a S&W .40 caliber handgun from a sports outlet in my town. They ran the background on him and apparently even with a Secret Clearance and being in the military (Lautenberg Amendment is the point I'm attempting to make), his background got shot down.
He wasn't upset, his name is very common and he just decided to go to the PX on post and purchase his weapon there. He then told me about the firearm and I was intrigued and wanted to purchase it.
So I brought him to the store with me and attempted to purchase it (integrity is a big thing with me, so hear me out lol).
The background came back clean but the manager accused me of being a straw person and refused to sell me the weapon. I dropped the entire subject because I'm not much into conflict, and I understand how that would look being on the opposite side of the scenario.
I'm just curious as to whether or not this will go into anything NCIC or through the TBI on my record. If it's just a spur of the moment thing I could care less, but if this is something that will follow me around I'm going to obviously have some clarifying to do.
