Let this be a lesson for those who so willfully comply with the government.

With every ruling I have seen over the last few years, I get the feeling that they should be renamed to ARBITRARY Tobacco and Firearms.

That's really it. They do whatever they want, and never let the Constitution or anything else get in the way.

That has been the playbook for every alphabet agency of the swamp for decades. "We know this flies in the face of the Constitution, but let's do it anyway. Hell, we'll probably be retired before someone successfully challenges it through the gauntlet of district, appellate, state, appellate, federal, appellate, and supreme courts. Screw "the people", we're in charge!"

I can't imagine many people voluntarily surrendered their bump stocks, do you have any statistics as to the number surrendered?

Wonder if this amounts to a "taking," and these owners having another cause of action.

Hey Lee, don’t you mean the AFT? 😂 What a joke. Just another way to get on the top of the fed short list. Must have been part of the inflation reduction bill. 🤣. I’m speechless! Our Republic has become the laughing stock of the world. Unfortunately we can’t fix stupid. The ATF, What a shit show! All of the ABC agencies are corrupt to the core!

ATF should be relegated to Tobacco only.

I’d say send them to the dust bin of history like 90% of the other alphabet agencies nothing but communist unelected law making freedom stealing arseholes, ( only congress can make laws)

"the agency wrongfully determined they were machine guns"

Next up: water pistol legislation.

As for putting the burden on the owners, yeah well, that's what they do.
