Re: Atf White Paper
I think it's more #2 looking to move up to #1 than the ATF as a whole. An ATF spokesperson specifically said the paper was the opinion of Ronald Turk, not the stance of the ATF.

The “white paper” by Ronald B. Turk, associate deputy director and chief operating officer of the ATF, calls for removing restrictions on the sale of gun silencers; allowing gun dealers to have more guns used in crimes traced to their stores before the federal government requires additional information from the dealer; and initiating a study on lifting the ban on imported assault weapons.
The white paper has the ATF seal on its cover and lists Turk’s name and ATF title. But an agency spokeswoman said it doesn’t represent the views of the ATF.
“It’s simply his opinion, and it’s to generate dialogue,” said spokeswoman Jan Kemp.
"I don't retreat; I kick ass in the other direction."

Re: Atf White Paper
Since the Billary years the ATF has changed, a lot. In the obama years they believed they could not only enforce laws but create them.
Now these dipshits know we have a leader who is on our side that can tame them with the stroke of a pen.
It's time for the $200 permission slips to fade away on about 90% of their BS.
As far as repealing the Hughes Amendment, don't hold your breath but I do believe we could see importation laws go away and hopefully see $50 AK parts kits once again.

Re: Atf White Paper
Maybe a good time to carefully evaluate those SKS and AKs you may have purchased after the price ballooned following the ban on imports before they drop in value again...
Maybe not.
Reminds me of that sudden manufacturing boom of ammo and reloading supplies that magically took place post election.

Re: Atf White Paper
Lots of interesting reading there, first time ever I heard of anyone from ATF coming out and actually saying a lot of their regulations and opinions do little to impact the publics safety. While we all just shook our heads at the useless micromanaging and prohibitions, some that work there must do the same. Finally the climate has cleared and it must be getting ok to speak common sense, without fear of politica correctness persecution.
