(Photo: G.A.)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) <a href=\"https:\/\/www.saf.org\/special-report-atf-federal-firearm-license-revocations-up-a-staggering-500\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"saf-reports-spike-in-ffl-revocations\" title=\"SAF Reports a 500% Increase in FFL Revocations\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">released a statement<\/a> concerning a recent increase in Federal Firearms License (FFL) revocations. While the move is tied to enforcing gun laws already on the books, the SAF believes that certain laws are being pushed past their limits as a form of backdoor gun control. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;In the 11 months since Joe Biden declared war on &#8216;rogue gun dealers,&#8217; the ATF has revoked 273 FFLs \u2013 an increase of more than 500 percent,&#8221; said Lee Williams on behalf of the SAF. &#8220;However, rather than targeting the true rogues, Biden\u2019s ATF is revoking FFLs for the most minor of paperwork errors, which were never a concern for the ATF until Biden weaponized the agency.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis has nothing to do with the ATF and everything to do with the DOJ,\u201d said industry expert John Clark of FFL Consultants. \u201cThe vast majority of the ATF don\u2019t like this any more than the industry does. It\u2019s Biden.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Clark alongside his business partner John Bocker work with the National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF) to help NSSF members avoid these incidents in the first place. \u201cOur goal is prevention \u2013 get it right the first time,&#8221; Bocker said. &#8220;We are the proactive and preventative arm of the NSSF.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Key to the massive increase in revocations is Biden\u2019s zero-tolerance for willful violations policy,&#8221; said Williams. &#8220;If a dealer makes a simple mistake, they can now lose their license, because the new definition of willful states that the dealer knew the law, but willfully chose to violate it anyway \u2013 regardless of whether it was an oversight, an error by an employee or a simple paperwork mistake.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThey have twisted negligence into willful,\u201d Clark said. \u201cThese are not uncommon errors that we\u2019re seeing. Things happen.\u201d Bocker added that they handle as many as three revocation hearings a week as of late. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Typically, justification for revoking an FFL requires a gun dealer to knowingly transfer a firearm to a prohibited person, decline to run a background check before a transfer, falsify records or refuse requests from the ATF to perform inspections. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Williams said that FFLs are having their licenses revoked for typographical errors submitted to the ATF, and even in some cases when the ATF failed to update their own FFL records. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">SEE ALSO: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/atf-targeting-ffls-for-license-revocation\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"saf-reports-spike-in-ffl-revocations\" title=\"SAF Reports a 500% Increase in FFL Revocations\">ATF Targeting FFLs for License Revocation<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Because of this, the SAF sent a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request to the ATF for records relating to any FFLs that have had their licenses revoked for transferring firearms to prohibited persons and businesses that lost their licenses for not cooperating with ATF requests. The ATF has yet to respond. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;In the 11 months since the FOIA request was filed, the ATF has not complied with the law,&#8221; said Williams. &#8220;They can comply with federal law and provide the documents, which will likely reveal that Biden\u2019s rogue gun dealer policy is just a ruse, or they can continue to deny and delay the FOIA request even though their actions violate federal law.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;If there is a dealer who transfers firearms to prohibited persons, fails to conduct background checks and ignores requests from the ATF to help trace firearms used in a crime, they should lose their FFL,&#8221; he said. &#8220;I don\u2019t know anyone who disagrees with that.&#8221; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;However, these are not the type of dealers the ATF is targeting at Biden\u2019s behest,&#8221; said Williams. &#8220;The Biden-Harris administration has ordered the ATF to revoke FFLs for even the most minor of paperwork errors, solely to support its rogue-dealer myth.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\">***<a href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/\" campaign=\"BuySellGA_Register\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\">Buy and Sell on GunsAmerica!<\/a>***<\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While the move is tied to enforcing gun laws already on the books, the SAF believes that certain laws are being pushed past their limits as a form of backdoor gun control.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":50,"featured_media":84576,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_specdata_upc":"","_specdata_placement":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[244,111,461,240],"tags":[132,469,108,617],"featured":[],"hunt365":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-163621","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-2nd-amendment-r2kba","8":"category-industry-news","9":"category-max-slowik","10":"category-this-week","11":"tag-buzz","12":"tag-gun-control","13":"tag-guns","14":"tag-industry-news"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.1 (Yoast SEO v27.3) -
