    Is a guy asking the questions was trying to lie and he only got exactly the answers that everybody wants to hear and still tried to make the other guy look bad for just saying that they follow the law and that anybody shouldn't just be able to sell weapons to just anybody. So if you agree that you think people should be able to sell weapons to our enemies or everybody that you don't like and don't think should have weapons then you're agreeing with him. So therefore you think terrorists that want to murder people that you care for should be sold weapons just because somebody wants to make some money? Do you not understand that that is what regulation is about? All right you just another Russian spy trying to so descent into the American public to install an idiot dictator to destroy our country?

    @@bobmcfierson2163you need to be a little more clear with your question. I don’t understand what you are asking. Chip Roy the Senator who is asking the ATF man the questions is showing how deceptive the ATF is. Ultimately the ATF, FBI, DOJ are trying to disarm America. Only the innocent and law abiding citizens will comply but criminals will not comply they will use a gun to steal, rape, murder sell drugs be in gangs and hurt people. All Chip Roy and other righteous people in congress are saying is that law abiding citizens should have the right to protect themselves! Here in California Gavin Newsom releases very evil criminals from prison early and lets them steal from stores and hurt people including his police then takes away the people’s right to defend themselves. Do you think that is fair? Now he has made it be that even if a criminal enters your home to steal your property you must allow it! Do you think that is right? Well Chip Roy and others are trying to help us ALL. “The right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed” PERIOD! They need to stop trying to change our Constitution!

    Pretty much. FFLs, upon closing their business, must give all records to (the ATF, I presume). Goes without saying that suppressor records are kept. On a side note, despite old information still out on the web, the FBI keeps any background check records for concealed permits for an indefinite (aka forever) time. Fingerprints as well. All this is rather academic. All the government needs to do to search and seize firearms on your property is pass a law that states ammo purchases are enough “probable cause”. And all those companies - online/offline - are going to hand over that information out of fiduciary duty (fear of losing profit if they don’t comply with the government). No subpoena necessary. People are scared of gun registration - and rightly so. But that’s an old fashioned way governments behaved, right before confiscation. They don’t need registration to know who has the guns. They just need data and some bureaucrat, law, or regulation to take them. And, obviously, the Constitution can’t prevent it from happening, as evidenced by the countless anti-property/gun laws, seizures, and homicidal raids.

    Took 2 1/2 year for them to deny my NFA application for a suppressor. Got a letter saying I “may be a prohibited person”. No more explanation than that. Had to enter an appeal online through the FBI website. All for their permission for me to have a suppressor so I can help protect my livestock from predators. I know that doesn’t compare to them murdering this man, but it’s all tied together. This has to stop.

    Every rule and regulation the ATF comes up with needs challenged by a well qualified gun Smith and shooter, and let's start with a shotgun with an 18" barrel is legal, and a pistol that shoots shotgun shells is legal but nothing in-between is legal, please expand on these rules that make no sense, then let's move to the pistol rifle conundrum where I have a 1911 let's say in 45 ACP, and I have a rifle of the same caliber and the barrel length can't be less than 18" once again, and what crimes are you preventing with weapons with barrel lengths between those numbers? And show your statistics relative to both pistol and 18" barreled rifles...and crimes committed in the say 10" to 17.9875" barrels, who are we protecting exactly?...it's certainly not a concealment issue, the pistol nullifies that argument...
