In fact, the instructions on the form itself read,
Quote:
This form is to be used by licensees to report all transactions in which an unlicensed person acquired two or more pistols or revolvers or any combination of pistols or revolvers totaling two or more at one time or during five consecutive business days. This form is not required when the pistols or revolvers are returned to the same person from whom they are received.

So, let me get this straight. Justice wants to generate (by
their estimates) an extra 18,000 reports per year, most of which will do nothing more than tie up payroll and manpower the ATF doesn't have, and which will end up sitting in boxes in the West Virginia office.
And this will achieve what? After all, Lone Wolf and J&G Sales were reporting these sales,
in real time, to the ATF, and the weapons still made it across the border.
Or am I missing something?
