Off topic but related...
It may be a bit off topic but the US Dept of Homeland Security is made up of many small & large federal LE agencies-offices.
From the US Secret Service to the US Border Patrol to the Federal Air Marshals Service.
Online or criminal activity with computers being a DHS mission isn't a real surprise. They may have the skills & resources to arrest/convict these kinds of criminals.
Id also say that 2A supporters or firearm industry members aren't being targeted or singled out. I'd speculate that for a formal federal LE investigation to be set up there'd be a lot of probable cause & material already.
FWIW: Jennings was sued, lost his company and wasn't doing very well in the gun business at the time of his federal arrest.
