Almost everyday on my scanner I hear a call where police are going to a house and before they get there they ask dispatch to run a firearms check. Many times dispatch comes back and tells the officers of various firearms registered to the person.
I guess dispatch just gets that information from............?
I don't know. But I do know that they are not getting it from the electronic 4473 as you are implying. I have no idea how California interferes in the process, but NONE of the firearm information from the 4473 goes to the FBI when the NICS is run. Your FFL buddy is talking through his hat, he is flat-out lying, or you totally misunderstood what he said on the matter.
