New AFT rule coming soon

I have this feeling that they will do some staged “sting” operations to try and make an example out of people. The lawyer guy guy on the Washington Gun Law YouTube channel seems to think it’s pretty bad. He is about the only “legal “ opinion channel that seems to usually make sense. William Kirkland is his name I think.

Hopefully this next election will stop the craziness but I fear not…..I have about all the guns I’ll be needing, a few good hand guns and a lever action accurate 30-30 if I have to hunt, a Ruger 10-22 rifle if I need to hunt smaller and a couple shotguns…….I bought 3 S&W AR-15 rifles several years ago and kept one and gave the other two to my sons mainly because I figured one day the government will outlaw sales of so called “Assault Rifles” so we will have one in the safe just in case…..For now I’ll be keeping what I have and not selling nothing but buying all the ammo I can find and keep listening to some old Hank……

As someone living in a "free state", I've been keeping an eye on this new ATF rule as well. It definitely raises some questions about how private sales will be affected, especially since they're such a common practice in many areas.


In Texas, private sales are pretty straightforward. If I'm selling a firearm to someone else privately, we usually just meet up at a local gun range or gun shop, where the buyer undergoes a background check before the transfer is completed. Sometimes, the FFL involved in the transfer will charge a small fee for facilitating the background check, but it's generally not too burdensome.


I can see how this new rule might complicate things for private sellers and buyers in states with stricter regulations. Having to involve an FFL for every private sale could add time and expense to the process, which might deter some people from buying or selling firearms privately altogether.
