As I mentioned earlier, the principal ID in the US is either an actual state driver's license or a state-issued ID based on the same format. Since police in one state can check the records of another state, as can the NICS, simply forging an ID is no good unless you're a teenager looking to fool a bartender. I suppose you could forge the ID of an actual license holder if you knew the correct data to put in. These printers will forge a plastic card with the hologram?
EDIT: Actually, I'm not sure if the NICS checks for an actual license the way the police do, or if if just looks to see if a name has been flagged as "prohibited".
