4473 is not registration, it's a background check.
It's often not even that. The primary purpose of a 4473 is for an FFL to show he's staying in compliance with the law. As a record-keeping scheme, it's full of potential holes.

Would I want a receipt to show who I got a gun from? Yes, but that's about it.
