I dont have all the details, but guess this silliness is tied into the alleged smuggling of guns to mexico.

Here is the proposed rule:

So I already wrote to Don Young, viz:

Hello Congressman Young:

I just was advised that the BATF has proposed that FFL Licensees be made to file Multiple Sales Reports for the sales of semi automatic Long Guns. The Notice is at http://edocket.access.gpo.gov/2010/pdf/2010-31761.pdf.

Please do something to stop this. I believe it is beyond their scope of authority and is not only unduly burdensome, but a backdoor way to maintain a registry, which they are prohibited from doing. As you know, they already skirt the law by maintaining Multiple sales reports on Handguns.

I will also call your local office on Monday to bring this to your staff's attention. In addition, if you are in town next week, stop by the shop on Friday before 2pm and have some Christmas cheer with us! It's always good to see you and we appreciate your efforts for us.

Merry Christmas and Kind Regards.
