Acting ATF Director Kash Patel Announces an End to the Agency's Abusive ‘Zero Tolerance' FFL Inspection Program
2025-04-09
[Shooting News] One of the most insidious ways that the virulently anti-gun Biden administration weaponized the nation’s firearms regulatory agency was to institute a “zero tolerance” policy for the nation’s gun retailers. In practice, that meant when a gun store was visited by the ATF’s industry operations inspectors to periodically audit their systems and paperwork, they were given no leeway at all for routine errors such as typos and other inadvertent errors on 4473 paperwork and the like.

The goal, of course, was to find as many FFLs as possible in violation of ATF’s regulations and shut them down. Biden’s ATF yanked the tickets of literally hundreds of FFLs over the years. You can read a few of our posts on the topic here, here, and here.

But once again, as someone once said, elections have consequences. Today, FBI Director Kash Patel, who’s also the acting ATF Director, announced that the Trump administration has put an end to the firearm regulator’s ritual abuse of law-abiding gun dealers. As you’d expect, the NSSF is pleased . . .
