FAIRFAX Va. – Join the National Rifle Association’s top firearms experts as they evaluate the prized guns of real Americans in “NRA Gun Gurus,” a new series premiering Wednesday, April 2 at 7:00 p.m. ET/PT on Outdoor Channel.
 
“NRA Gun Gurus,” presented by Henry Repeating Arms, will explore the fascinating stories behind the treasures of everyday firearms enthusiasts, delivering excitement or disappointment when collectors find out what their possessions are really worth. Viewers will scramble to their safes, closets, and basements after each episode to look for the lost gems in their own collections.

During testimony before the Oregon Senate Judiciary Hearing on SB 1551 on Feb 6, 2014, the question of how long firearms background check records are kept came up. Tricia Whitfield, Director of the Oregon State Police Identification Services Section, testified that that they keep the information on approved transactions for 10 days. After 10 days the information is “purged.”

Sen. Floyd Prozanski (D-Eugene) asked a clarifying question “If a sale goes through with no problems, no flags, basically within 10 days those records are purged, meaning they are no longer in existence?” Tricia Whitfield responded “Sen. Prozanski, correct.”
