you still gotta provide the info, wait the 3 days, just like buying new. also, if the seriel is even scratched they cant buy it. so...it's a pretty clean system. plus, the pawn shop has to notify police of just about everything they buy, keep records of who pawned it, and wait 20 days before putting it on the shelves. so it's a pretty clean system if you think about it...someone gets robbed they usually report it next day at most so 20 days is plenty of time for a claim or kickback from police/insurance.

Just curious, what's a "FAC?"

By the way, I have a good friend here who is in the Canadian Air Force. He is an avid shooter but has told me the restrictions on firearm ownership in Canada are very stringent as compared to Texas. He actually has a Texas concealed carry license since he is recognized as a Texas resident while stationed here, which he amusing likes to show everyone when he goes back home to Canada! His brother recently completed the police academy up there, and has less ability to use his duty weapon in self-defense than we do here!
