My brother just visited and said that in NRA’s magazine this month (Freedom) there was an article stating that citizens are writing in to them about the ATF visiting and requesting serial numbers from their guns. Has anyone heard about this?
Yes - there has been discussion here and on various firearms forums - in Texas and perhaps in other states (either near the Mexican border or in areas from where supposed gun trafficking to Mexico originates), ATF agents have reportedly been visiting FFLs, obtaining names and addresses of firearms purchasers (from form 4473’s kept by the FFLs), and then visiting individual firearms owners demanding to see certain weapons by serial number.
I’ve read of that as being a possible future happening.....not present???
Nothing in rural Kansas. Keep us posted!
“Has anyone heard about this?...”
Read the same. Not anywhere near the border where I’m at but rest assured if any Feds show up at the door asking for things such as this they will get a solid “go to Hell” followed up with a “don’t ever come back here without a warrant”.....
