Ideally, wouldn't the Privacy Act of 1974 prevent that from happening?

Also, correct me if I'm wrong, but not everyone has to wait 3 days? And in the situations where there is a 3 day wait, it's often touted that as a bonus because it allows the purchaser to cool off in case they're thinking of buying a firearm to do something rash.

Edit: Ah. It looks like waiting periods are one of those State by State things. Some states have them, others don't.
