Biden's ATF obtained more than 54 million gun owner records in 2021 alone
The Biden administration in just the past year alone stockpiled the records of more than 54 million U.S. gun owners and is poised to drastically alter gun regulations to ensure that information on Americans who own firearms ultimately ends up in the federal government's hands, according to internal Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms (ATF) documents obtained by the Washington Free Beacon.
The ATF in fiscal year 2021 processed 54.7 million out-of-business records, according to an internal ATF document obtained by the Gun Owners of America, a firearms advocacy group, and provided exclusively to the Free Beacon. When a licensed gun store goes out of business, its private records detailing gun transactions become ATF property and are stored at a federal site in West Virginia. This practice allows the federal government to stockpile scores of gun records and has drawn outrage from gun advocacy groups that say the government is using this information to create a national database of gun ownersβwhich has long been prohibited under U.S. law.
The ATF obtained 53.8 million paper records and another 887,000 electronic records, according to the internal document that outlines ATF actions in fiscal year 2021. Gun activists described this figure as unusually high and said it contributes to fears that the Biden administration is trying to keep track of all Americans who own firearms, in violation of federal statutes. The procurement of these records by the ATF comes as the Biden administration moves to alter current laws to ensure that gun records are stored in perpetuity. Currently, gun shops can destroy their records every 20 years, thereby preventing the ATF from accessing the information in the future.

16 background checks to build your own gun would be ridiculous.
To build an AR now, you only need one BG check for the lower receiver.
Yup.
When I was considering buying several guns and collecting them, I watched the original Red Dawn movie. This scene changed my mind about being on anyone’s list of gun owners.

When I saw that in the theatre, the entire movie audience went into a chilled silence mode.
So with about 150 million gun owners in America and assuming the send 10 agents out to each person to collect those guns and 5 of them are shot and killed how long will it take them to collect all the guns or run out of agents?
Asking for a friend.
Those targeted should be the ones directing the agents to collect the guns. All the way up. They should never be safe. Remember that effective communications require that you talk to them in a language they understand.
How is the fire protection at that site?
I have always believed they would run out of agents/volunteers by the end of the first block in most Texas towns. They do not have enough to do it, they just will not accept it
FReepmail me if you want to be added to or deleted from the list.
More 2nd Amendment related articles on FR's Bang List.
Illegal as hell. Not that we are under rule of law anymore.
Looks like it's time to exchange some more firearms with friends and acquaintances, so FedGov does not know who has what. (Private sales legal in my state. It's not commie state).
Thread the needle,,,
Ping
That could have been a 5th grade math question written by a patriotic teacher !
Those background checks do not disappear like the FBI tells us.
Is there a “boating accident” exemption?
Let’s go Brandon!

I bought this in June: https://cz-usa.com/product/cz-scorpion-evo-3-s1-pistol-2/
Scary looking to a Leftist for sureβ¦β¦.but shoots great! Never jams, fun, and considered a pistol so I can carry conceal LOL not sure how though!
Also picked up twenty 32 round mags for it too. In case theyβre ever hard to come by.
β The next conservative president should order and enforce the destruction of these records.β
βββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
I thought and we were told that the FBI isn’t suppose to keep NICS records.
Theyβre are suppose to be destroyed already.
Another lie.
Wonder if the stockpile of the records will end up like Hillary’s 30 thousand e-mail records you know how well the FBI are with records?.
Or who might own ANY firearms.
Firearms registration database already violated Federal law.
Shut the ATF down under RICO and charge the Administration with treason.
