I think this could work for FFLs who don't want customers to walk out of store without a proceed from OSP.In my hypothetical, the buyer would sign to gunsmith terms and sign the 4473 under one roof without leaving with the firearm; potentially without even handling it. That transfers ownership to the buyer and forms a contractual agreement between the buyer and gunsmith until the terms have been fulfilled. It's not exactly a trustless model but I don't see a gap there.
Example:
Frank has been waiting for bg approval for 4 days. He goes into shop and ask them to do a no response release of firearm. They agree to release the firearm to him if he immediately hands it back over to the gunsmith desk for a safety check and is willing to wait until they receive a proceed from OSP before he picks it up from the gunsmith desk. Once the proceed comes through the owner can pick up the firearm from the gunsmith desk and pay a fee for the safety check that was performed. He will not need to do a background check to retrieve it from gunsmith desk.
The firearm was marked as being released in retail book and then entered in to the gunsmith book. All of this can happen in the same store by the same FFL.
