Fight the Mayors Against All Guns

As you may know, the goons at BATFE want to adopt a rule requiring dealers to report multiple sales of long guns. The problem with that proposed rule is that the statute authorizing reporting multiple sales of firearms, 18 U.S.C. 923(g)(3)(A), specifically limits such reporting to handguns.

Each licensee shall prepare a report of multiple sales or other dispositions whenever the licensee sells or otherwise disposes of, at one time or during any five consecutive business days, two or more pistols, or revolvers, or any combination of pistols and revolvers totalling two or more, to an unlicensed person. The report shall be prepared on a form specified by the Attorney General and forwarded to the office specified thereon and to the department of State police or State law enforcement agency of the State or local law enforcement agency of the local jurisdiction in which the sale or other disposition took place, not later than the close of business on the day that the multiple sale or other disposition occurs.
