The Gun Owners of America discusses a potential new rule that could finally do away with the illegal records.
Ever since the Biden era, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) has been keeping a registry of gun records gathered by gun stores, as noted by former President Biden’s “Engaged In the Business” rule. But this isn’t entirely legal, as the ATF managed to digitize these records when gun stores go out of business, according to Gun Owners of America spokesman Stephen Willeford.
Clearly this is a violation of federal statutes galore. But not to worry, as the Trump Administration is working on a way to do away with this record keeping.
It’s considering a new rule that could do away with this illegal registry, which Congress believes could hold well “over a billion records.”
The Gun Owners of America, a group that firmly believes in the right for everyone to bear arms, discussed the problematic searchability of the illegal registry in a highly detailed report, which can be found here.
In short, they’re requesting Congress to make sure this Trump-applied rule holds properly. Because, without their action, “this illegal ATF registry can be used for mass gun confiscation, by this government – such as the enforcement of the Biden Pistol Ban – or potentially one day even by this nation’s enemies.”
Stephen Willeford represents Gun Owners of America and is known around the country as the “good guy with the gun” for helping stop the largest Texas mass shooting in the history of the state in 2017. He is available to speak about all gun rights issues, as well as the importance of Gun Owners of America. He is the author of the book A Town Called Sutherland Springs: Faith and Heroism Through Tragedy. You can read more about him at http://www.thebarefootdefender.com.
