When you fill out the 4473 at time of purchase, you call W. Virginia to get the information on the form to them, they then in turn tell you yeh or neh on the sale of that weapon to the customer.
What more security do they need in protecting their security process, with the exception of getting their employees to make sure the 4473 is filled out properly [ which most of them fail miserably at at WalMarts ].
These processes merely provide us, as a retailer, an additional mechanism to assist law enforcement when illegal activity occurs.
I think that policy protects them from their employees mistakes, not the buying public. If they are doing their job, the license information will match the 4473 form, and LE could track them down quite easily from there with DOB, address, SS# [ optional on form ], even if the information was out of date for some reason.
