A recent doorbell video recording (part 1 here) from a Delaware resident prompted a Republican lawmaker to question why agents from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives asked a legal firearm owner for his weapons’ serial numbers without a warrant.
The video (part 2 here), first posted and reported by Armed American News, shows ATF agents and state troopers on July 12 demanding a homeowner turn over the serial numbers of firearms he recently purchased.
“I’m extremely concerned by the reports of a surprise and unwarranted firearms inspection conducted by the ATF. This incident occurred the same day Steve Dettelbach was sworn in to head the ATF, and it is exactly the kind of action I was concerned about under his leadership. ATF agents did not have a search warrant, and they had to rely on pressuring the homeowner for consent,” Rep. Matt Rosendale, Montana Republican, told The Washington Times.
“The ATF must answer questions on why they decided to conduct an illegal search, especially since the homeowner had done nothing wrong. These actions by the federal government are unsettling, and they have no business going door-to-door to see who owns firearms. I fear that there will be more illegal inspections to come as the Left continues its assault on our 2nd Amendment rights. Congress should investigate this immediately.”
The ATF defended itself in a statement to The Washington Times, saying the agents’ actions were “entirely appropriate.”

Illegal search. They have no warrant they have no right.
The tyrants aren’t even trying to hide it anymore.
Voting is clearly not the solution at this point.
Just never buy 2 guns at once.
And if you can, buy them at a show with cash from a private owner.
It’s all shucks and lemonade in the afternoon, followed by flashbangs and armored invasion somewhere down the line. Don’t give them anything and demand a warrant.

if WACO happened today, it would be a cakewalk..
Pushing the envelope.
There is no requirement that a person has to answer their questions.
Good policy: No Warrant, no answer to questions...
This will not end well.
Yup. makktwain nails it...for now.

I would have told them to come back with a warrant and leave my property till then..Meanwhile my guns would have disappeared...
LOL. Left 'em in DC...
for now.
.Meanwhile my guns would have disappeared...

Seems like sometimes they claim that stuff might disappear, and they can sit on everything till they get the warrant.
Yup,
Mr. DOMINION’s got My vote
and my 1st. AMENDMENT.

Let’s talk about My 2nd.
Hell, no warrant, no answer-the-door.
Hint: Buying multiple firearms is NOT “Probable Cause”!!!
