    I’ve never been asked if about prior drug use in connection with buying a firearm. Is it normal to ask that? Or is it something that isn’t asked about and happens to be obscurely illegal?

      Pretty sure it’s the first question on the form you have to fill out. I believe all the answers are no, but it’s been a while.

      You’ve never done an ATF 4473? It’s required if buying from a dealer. It may vary by state for private sales.

        Yes, they said iirc it says are you now or have you ever been addicted to xyz.

      Yes you have. You just didn’t read the documents you signed.
