"Anytime a bureaucrat is given the kinds of power the BATFE has, it will be abused. Red's is just one in a long line of dealers being rail-roaded out of the industry by crap like this."

I don't think he's being railroaded out of existence. I think Horsley was unreasonable and sloppy at least. He already had at least one warning, which should have woke him up. It didn't and his op continued to be sloppy.

from the article: "Ryan Horsley said Red's was found responsible of several violations in an earlier audit."

The dealers I know don't have these problems, even one with filing system, that amounted to storing their forms at the point in the store where they were filled out and dropped right there, then later fell into a box, into a corner, or stuck to the bottom of a sandwich wrapper. The sales volume, was on the order of this guy's.

6-7 errors out of 10000? Doesn't sound sloppy to me. If government kept track of our tax money like that, we'd be a lot better off...

Considering most of these arbitrary BATFE infringements shouldn't even exist, don't be too happy about this guys business going down the tubes.

I hate the red tape as much as the next guy, and think the laws are way to confusing and harsh when it comes to firearms sales.

But you are correct. If it is Law it behooves you to comply.
Unless, like some folks here you are willing to commit suicide by cop.

I'll follow the law and fight another day in the political forum trying to redact this sort of BATF BS.

Ryan knew the laws and didn't comply, and got burnt.
He knows better than anyone that the feds are touchy about firearms laws.
Its stupid, but all my firearms are section 922 compliant.

Section 922 is ridiculous but I will comply until we can loosen restrictions.
