I hold an FFL. A dealer MUST prepare a Form 4473 and have the background check on the buyer. In states that allow it, if the buyer has a concealed carry permit, no background is required, but the permit number and expiration date must appear on the Form 4473. These things vary from state to state, but none that I know of allow a dealer to sell a firearm without going through the precess to see if the buyer is allowed to have the firearm. Private transactions vary from state to state.
