Cheating death and fighting communism: that is how a fellow officer once described our job. It was meant to be funny, but as time went on it seemed all too true.
I spent more than ten years in law enforcement, all of it on the street in uniform patrol. I've been a patrol officer, instructor, sergeant and lieutenant.

No.
Commercial firearms transactions go through a special FBI database. The database used is not one that is available to other law enforcement agencies. Some of the information in the database is available to outside agencies through other files, but not all of it. For example, if a police officer was to run a "normal" criminal history on a person, it would show prior felony convictions but not other things like if you had been adjudicated mentally ill, renounced your citizenship, etc.
Chances are you are the best person to know if you are no longer allowed to own a firearm. If you have a specific question about a possible prohibition, feel free to ask.

Officers respond from whereever they are at the moment. They might be eating lunch, driving down the street or submitting evidence at the department. They do not sit around at the PD like the firefighters do.

Sounds like you probably should return the car and find a new friend.
Share Answer: 
Your information and the details of the contact are probably stored in the local department's database. If they are networked with other agencies, they all departments in that network would have access to the information as well.
If you were not charged with a crime, then the information would not be in a national criminal database.
