John Lott's Website: ATF putting more gun dealers out of business

4/02/2007

I am Ryan Horsley with Red's Trading Post, the ATF is currently attempting to revoke our license like they have done to so many other FFL dealers in this country. I am attempting to raise awareness of this issue. I have received numerous phone calls from other dealers asking why more gun owners are not aware of this problem.

Anonymous said...: The Bush administration has increased the BATFs budget by 300% over the past 6 years to almost $1 billion, which in turn has increased BATF prosecutions by 40% and license revocations to record levels. Then again Bill Bennett and G.H.W. Bush initiated the "assault weapon ban" by banning the importation of "non-sporting" firearms, Clinton just applied it domestically.
