This is false. I've had my background checked at least a dozen times. Most recently, just this past October, and I have never given my fingerprints to anyone.
- noodlesUK 4y agoYou are correct. What I meant was a government issued/recognized background check.
- xyzzyz 4y agoThe government background check for buying firearms does not involve fingerprints either.
- paulmd 4y agoDepends on which firearms. NFA items absolutely do need fingerprints.
- modoc 4y agoTrue but that's less than 1% of firearm purchases. Normal 4473 purchases don't require fingerprints or photos or anything like that.
- kevin_thibedeau 4y agoIt is required for security clearances. For those positions you also give up 4A protection.
- noasaservice 4y agoI attest to this. I have fingerprints filed with at least 10 different civilian fed agencies.
