Yesterday I went to a local sporting goods store and purchased a suppressor. He put it in the safe and sent me home with the Form 4's. I filled them out in the name of my Trust and sent them off today. This evening he e-mails, says a customer came in and told him that he had called the ATF and all trust applications not yet approved will be sent back for information on all responsible parties. The "Executive Order" (which now, a week later, has still not been published for anyone to see) was supposed to have started a 90-day comment period, not make an arbitrary new rule.
Which for me means photos and fingerprints from three people and potential CLEO signoffs in two counties, all so that my wife can have legal access to it when I'm not home and she won't have to deal with the intricacies of NFA transfers and selling it when I die. I'd be ok with just my needing submit everything, but all 3 of us?
FUCK YOU AND YOUR STUPID, KNEE-JERK, POINTLESS GUN CONTROL SCHEMES BARACK OBAMA
(The needless new school zone at the local high school is also pushing me over the edge a little; in this specific instance it kind of smacks of knee-jerk gun control laws as well)
I'm about to go effing Libertarian
