Today, the ATF showed up with 16 agents, most from out-of-state from cities like LA and San Francisco, to “inspect” Adventure Outdoors in Smyrna, GA. This visit was unprecedented. The sheer amount of agents from the bluest parts of the country is unusual and unnecessary to conduct a routine audit. This is a prime example of Joe Biden and the Democrats weaponizing federal agencies to silence and intimidate their political opponents. I fear this is just the beginning and they are directly targeting our Second Amendment and our right to protect and defend our families. I’m proud to have joined my colleagues to do our job and conduct Congressional Oversight on this highly suspect “inspection.”
@RepMTG You all are off the rails. The ATF can conduct compliance randomly when and where they choose. What difference does it make that this business is 45 years old?
@justicenow_alan @RepMTG Sounds like infringements
@justicenow_alan @RepMTG How many audits have u been thru? Of any kind? 16 agents sounds excessive for anything other than a warrant
@justicenow_alan @RepMTG My question is, how does a gun dealer go 45 years without an inspection if the ATF has been doing their job all along?
@justicenow_alan @RepMTG It doesn't take 16 agents. That has never happened. Not once. It might take maybe 4 or 5 at the most. But gun stores like this one have their records straight and do things by the law.
