In my state, when it arrives at the LGS, it is signed into his inventory. When I pick it up (and pay the receiving fee, pass the NICS, and register it with my local permit clerk), I receive a receipt from the LGS. Then it is my property.

I've never been able to get to any of my purchases in any inspection period, and there has been only one I was disappointed in. A Luger, by chance. I still have it, and would like to pass it on, but handgun legislation is in a state of flux and nobody knows what is going on, least of all the people charged with the paperwork.
