Frequently Asked Questions

What specific Biden-era gun control measures are senators demanding the ATF rescind?

Senators are demanding the rescission of four specific measures: the 'engaged in the business' rule, the pistol brace rule, the 'ghost gun' rule, and the zero-tolerance policy for FFLs. They argue these policies are unlawful and infringe upon Second Amendment rights.

Why are senators calling the ATF's pistol brace rule unconstitutional?

The pistol brace rule improperly reclassifies pistols with stabilizing braces as short-barreled rifles, subjecting them to stringent NFA and Gun Control Act regulations. Senators argue this makes lawful owners felons overnight and was implemented after ATF previously determined braces did not render pistols SBRs.

What is the 'engaged in the business' rule and why is it being challenged?

The 'engaged in the business' rule is criticized as an unconstitutional attempt by the ATF to impose universal background checks on law-abiding Americans. The senators note that ATF has been temporarily enjoined from enforcing this rule due to violations of the Gun Control Act.

What action is being requested regarding ATF Form 4473 records?

Senators are urging the ATF to immediately destroy hundreds of millions of Form 4473 firearm transaction records and other lengthy records over 20 years old, stating they have no law enforcement value and contain sensitive information. They also want ATF to revert to allowing FFLs to destroy their own old records.
