...the State Department has canceled plans by the Republic of Korea to return tens of thousands of surplus rifles to the U.S. for sale in the consumer market. Source of actual cancellation?

...permission had been granted for the rifles to be shipped to the U.S., then it was rescinded.

By whom? When? WND is not my most trusted source for hard news. It is official? Does the ROK know about this?

We don't know. FOIA requests are being prepared for both ATF and DoS to obtain this info.

There is also now a pending bill before Congress to reverse the State Dept. decision. Co-sponsored by Duncan D. Hunter, among others.
