Form 4473 and current address?

[hlb14]

Twice now I've inquired about buying a gun from the same local dealer and they've told me the address on my drivers license has to match current address on file with tdot. They've said this is an ATF requirement.  I've moved several times in the last few years and have always kept my address updated but never asked for updated licenses.  I've never been told this by another dealer and it hasn't kept me from purchasing elsewhere.   

Have rules changed or is the dealer just being strict?

My license shows my old address and my carry permit shows current address. Academy wouldn't take the driver's license even though my address is changed. My local shops said as long as what I put on the form and what the state has on record, you are fine.

It just seems to be the responsible thing to update your license with your current address.

Always had to have the DL and current address the same when I purchased a firearm.
