Acting Head of BATFE Breaks Land Speed Record To Rescind Airgun Directive He Just Issued
2010-11-13
Oops! Airsoft diktat officially rescinded! Was this a Chief Counsel's Office attempt to manipulate Melson into discrediting himself?

ATF Chief Counsel's Office slips Deputy Director Melson another exploding cigar.

The ATF Pressroom admitted to me by phone this morning that ATF Ruling 2010-4, has been rescinded!

It would seem that I was right when I speculated that somebody maneuvered Deputy Director Kenneth Melson into signing something he did not understand would blow up in his face. He is beginning to look like Charlie Brown and the football.

This is not by accident. The Chief Counsel's Office has run ATF for years as temporary directors came and went and they are not interested in any competition. Nor are they interested in cleaning up their act.

#1  Sounds liek the State Dept - it needs to be cleaned out with a flamethrower. And it is possible. Like Reagan did with the Air Traffic Controllers.
