This depends on whether the dealer just folded or if the business was bought out by someone.
A dealer going out of business is required to surrender his records to the ATF. If he is bought out, the buyer can keep the records, or he can choose to surrender them to the ATF anyway.
You may try to contact ATF about those records.
