ATF Inspection

[Ron Smith]

"I won't argue this either way, but you can be sure that crackdowns and tightening of regulations are coming under the current administration."

The stepped up audits began well over a year ago, maybe two. Every gun shop in town went through them. They started with C&Rs last Summer.

About two years ago they busted a C&R holder who was selling Glocks and various other non-C&R firearms at the Reno show.

There was also a local shop owner who narrowly missed a prison term. They locked the doors and yanked his license within 2 hours of beginning the audit. He had been in business since the 70's.

Interesting.

All the times you mention as to the start of the increased enforcement was during Bush's tenure. (Except for the gun shop owner for whom no date was given.)

I don't think this is a specific political move, never has been.

The gov't doesn't like you and me owning guns, its cut and dry. (goes back to the rich / those in power feeling that you are protected by police and the military)

Lots of "rights' Have been modified and taken away the last 10 years, this is just another one that is being eroded.
