The wording on 4473 forms is terrible, but it is looking at controlled substances, which are a defined list. Here is a very dry and boring listing.
Yes, they are a Schedule 3 controlled substance.
No, it is regulated in other ways and not on the controlled substances scheduling list.
The Federal government has really put this enforcement in a bind by making and keeping marijuana Schedule 1 (the highest danger category) while public opinion continually shifts to see it as less and less of a big deal.
