One is supposed to ask the buyer if they have purchased
another handgun(s) in the past 5 days and then report it. If they've changed the 4473, that's news to me. The buyer doesn't complete anything past where he/she signs the form (attesting that the information is correct). One can think of this form as a legal document, chain of evidence and such. It is imperative that it be correctly filled out by both buyer and seller. Yes, the ATF does get "pissy" about the form AND reporting multiple handgun sales.
