Until the ATF (and pretty much every other “way around the Constitution” agency) gets shut down, it doesn’t mean a thing.

Good riddance but there's always worse on the horizon.

shortly after the agency dropped a controversial attempt to ban certain armor-piercing bullets used in AR-15 rifles.

Wrong. The stuff isn't AP. M995 is AP, hardened tungsten carbide core, two bucks a round if you can find it anywhere and I stopped trying. Let's face it, the 5.56 isn't your first choice against an armored target.

This affair was obviously a deliberate stretch to see if they could redefine ammunition categories enough to restrict their contents. Had they succeeded, any rifle caliber that has ever been chambered in a pistol format could have been banned, which is a very wide range indeed. There was no mistake here, only a reach for power and it's high time the hand doing so got slapped, hard.

“ATF employees are hard-working, dedicated individuals who serve the public to make our nation safer every day,”

ATF employees who are worth keeping should transfer to the FBI. The others should find useful jobs. ATF should be disbanded, and all federal firearms laws should be repealed. "Shall not be infringed" means exactly what it says.

ATF employees are hard-working, dedicated individuals who serve the public to make our nation safer every day,” Jones said in a statement. “I have seen firsthand their extraordinary commitment to combating violent crime, ridding the streets of criminals, and leveraging all available resources to keep our communities safe

How many lies can a person cram into one "statement"?

Not hardly’enough. Atf needs to be done away with and never return.
