LITTLE ROCK, Ark. – The affidavit detailing the ATF case against the Little Rock airport executive who was shot and killed by federal agents serving a search warrant at his home was released Thursday.
In the heavily redacted warrant affidavit, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives claims that Bryan Malinowski purchased numerous firearms that he resold without a firearm dealer’s license.
Bryan Malinowski, the Little Rock airport executive shot by ATF agents, dies from injuries
According to the warrant, Malinowski purchased more than 150 guns between May 2021 and Feb. 27, 2024, which he then resold.

Only one gun might have been used in a crime. The gun was reported as stolen and then was found in the position of someone who did an armed robbery.
All the rest were taken up while arresting people for other things, usually the terrible crime of having mary-ja-wana.
“Or maybe he was a good guy doing favors for people who wanted to practice their right of self defense without being on the Stazi’s little list of people to raid.”
He was filling orders for a convicted robber!
But you just keep on hoovering.
I have no idea. Maybe NPR is like Google and Twitter where we found they employed lots of spooks who try to influence and manipulate elections.
“Yeah you should never try to help people to avoid being on government lists.”
Especially those that are already on government lists!
“The gun was reported as stolen and then was found in the position of someone who did an armed robbery.”
Stolen? W-1 identified Malinowsky as his source.
“No.”
YES
“Probably yours.”
So you lied!
Yeah, I don’t care enough about any random Memphis resident’s gun needs to have a 6am ATF wake-up. But, hey, you do you!
“The right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed...”
Best way to insure gun cases never get to higher court is to make sure the accused never makes it through the raid.
If the guy wasn’t wanted for something violent and had no history of violence there was no cause to go in with a swat team.
I don’t know, have not heard or followed reporting on this case. Did he have a violent history? Was he a suspect in a violent crime?
Selling guns to shady people is something our government does all the time. Heck, it gave tons of them to the Taliban.
Agreed — many oddities and contradictions in this.
The ATF affidavit is entirely credible, and Malinowski appears to be guilty of violating numerous laws without trying very hard to hide it. Did he not realize that the FFL handling his purchases had to keep a book of all their transactions, meaning ATF routine inspections would inevitably red flag him for buying in volume? Why would he ask buyers about their ages, and care about pistol-brace rules, yet flaunt that he didn’t do paperwork?
The guy either wanted to get caught, stubbornly refused to accept that gun laws are what they are, or somehow got off on leading a dual life of respected airport manager/illegal arms dealer. A person in charge of an international airport could get up to a LOT more dangerous and lucrative crimes. Why take huge risks and spend a lot of time for peanuts? (Maybe he had airport scams going that he didn’t get caught for...yet).
Undercover atf goober got him
The more I read this thread and think about it, the more I wonder what his FR screenname was. Probably something like "FrommycolddeadhandsSuperPatriot."
I’m anti Fed no question
No beef with my rural boys even when they arrest me lol
They are very polite
And usually share our politics
Thank u
Not impressed with some of these comments
“I don’t doubt that - the question is why did he do it?”
*****************************************************
I didn’t read the warrant and just read that he bought and sold guns, presumably at gun shows. I don’t think that, in itself, is illegal. Maybe he “cut corners” on the legal paperwork.
As to why he did it… lots of guys have second part-time jobs or side small businesses to help support their family. Hell, when I was younger for a long time I worked a very early morning gig sorting packages for UPS before going to my regular job.
C48
Person to person isn’t recorded
And six in the hands of criminals out of 150 ain’t exactly a gun slinging guy to criminals
I told folks when this happened here the smears would start and media would lap it up
As do some posters
I DONT TRUST JACK FROM FEDS
If u do you’re stupid or culture war flew over your noggin
