Default Form 4473 Updated - New usage Starts 01/16/2017

Biggest change is to remind all that using medical (or recreational) Marijuana disqualifies you from purchasing new guns...

You can download it here.

I don't see a problem here. Marijuana IS on a Federal Level Illegal. I don't use it, and I know that it impairs judgement

No freeman shall be debarred the use of arms.

“Laws that forbid the carrying of arms...disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes... Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man.” Thomas Jefferson

Unless you get your weed directly from the Federal Government (IND program), in which case you aren't breaking Federal law and therefore can truthfully answer "No".

The first form to fill out 'here' is, and has been, regarding the use of medical (or recreational) Marijuana, if you answer 'yes' to either one the whole process stops right then and there ... no moving forward, at all.

A gun is a tool, no better or no worse than any other tool: an axe, a shovel or anything. A gun is as good or as bad as the man using it. Remember that.

And shepherds we shall be, for Thee, my Lord, for Thee.
Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, that our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command.
So we shall flow a river forth to Thee, and teeming with souls shall it ever be.
In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti.

On Form 4473 the question is "Are you an unlawful user...". If you are in the IND program, the answer is NO, regardless of the "Warning". However, you could argue that the people in the program are "addicted", which is the second part of the question. They, in turn, could argue that marijuana doesn't usually create a physical addiction.
