Frequently Asked Questions

What are the six types of guns the ATF is reportedly targeting for arrests?

The ATF is reportedly targeting large caliber belt-fed and machine guns, unregistered fully automatic machine guns, illegally modified ARs and AKs, firearms with prohibited accessories, guns with machine gun conversion devices like Glock switches, and legally trafficked or stolen firearms.

Why are unregistered machine guns a focus for the ATF?

Unregistered machine guns are a focus because many have changed hands over generations without proper registration transfers. The ATF requires registration to follow the firearm from person to person, and failure to do so can lead to arrests.

What kind of modifications to ARs and AKs are illegal according to the ATF?

Illegal modifications to AR and AK variants typically involve changes to triggers or other mechanisms that push the firearm into a category deemed illegal by the ATF. These are often found in urban areas and associated with criminal activity.

Is it possible to be arrested for a gun you bought legally?

Yes, it is possible. If a firearm you legally purchased is later found to be stolen or illegally trafficked, it can be seized by the ATF, and you may face legal consequences even if you were unaware of its illicit history.
