Federal Firearms License holders (FFLs) claim President Biden is targeting them after his administration revoked the licenses of 122 FFLs during the last fiscal year.
In July 2023, the Truth About Guns said that in the current fiscal year “ATF has conducted 6,609 inspections of Federal Firearms Licensees … That’s closing in on 2022’s annual total of 7,502 for the entire year. ATF inspectors are conducting an average of 647.33 inspections across the nation per month, topping 2022’s monthly average of 587.66.”
“FFLs that willfully violate the law, however, must be held accountable,” she said. “ATF conducts inspections to ensure compliance with applicable local, state, and federal laws and regulations and to educate licensees on the specific requirements of those laws and regulations.”
From Breitbart:
ATF spokesperson Kristina Mastropasqua said, “Federal Firearms Licensees are often our first line of defense against gun crime and are often a source of critical enforcement information that helps law enforcement identify straw purchasers and disrupt firearms trafficking schemes.”
