We had problems with the ATF here in NM. There is a provision that says the ATF "shall not make copy of records (ATF 4473's)". They singled out quite a few gun dealers here in Albuquerque, and copied their 4473's LONGHAND! They claimed that "making copies" meant making photocopies, and they were authorized to copy the information longhand. In other words, a loophole! One of the gun dealers was a very small dealer who only custom built National Match guns! NONE of his, in over 20 years, had been involved in a crime. He averaged 50 guns/ year in sales.

Those shills are discounting the fact that being innocent of charges improperly brought against you won't save you the tens of thousands of dollars required to mount a defense in court. Idiots.

If there were any justice in the world, every one of those shills would be bankrupted in a fight against baseless federal charges.

Here we go again, ATF shot gun approach, taking guns from law abiding, not from the criminals.

"...19 of the 114 guns were tied to violent crimes, including seven homicides..."

If I'm not mistaken, self-defense shootings are counted as homicides.
"tied to violent crimes" brings up the question: In what way?
Did somebody STOP a crime using any of these guns?
Is that being counted too?

I don't worry about criminals at all.
OTOH, the BATF's track record make them something to be highly concerned about...
especially when they pull crap like this.

BTTT for Mr Marcus!

I hope he wins. P.S. What is the rapist's worst nightmare? A woman with a gun!

"But ``if we're talking about responsible gun ownership and use, why do we care if somebody has our name"

Ask that to the 600 Muslims being held without rights after 9-11 simply because they are Muslim and you will probably get a good answer as to what might be done with a list.
