Frequently Asked Questions

Who is Eric Epstein and why was he fired from the ATF?

He was reportedly fired (or given the choice to retire) due to his role in rules like the pistol brace rule and the 'engaged in the business' rule, and his past involvement with Operation Fast and Furious.

What is the significance of the new ATF policy regarding the NICS system?

The new ATF policy, influenced by GOA's reporting, limits the use of the NICS background check system for investigations primarily focused on state firearm laws. This prevents states from using federal resources to enforce their own gun control measures.

What gun control regulations was Eric Epstein involved in creating?

Eric Epstein was involved in drafting the 'engaged in the business' rule, the pistol brace rule (which reclassified pistols with braces as NFA items), and the frames and receivers rule. He also worked for Pamela Hicks, who wrote many gun control rules.

How does the ATF policy change affect states' ability to enforce gun laws?

The policy change means states can no longer rely on the ATF to conduct federal investigations that primarily serve to enforce state-level gun control laws. This limits their ability to leverage federal systems for their own regulatory purposes.
