HR 6225: Yet Another Gun Control Bill
BY Herschel Smith
3 years ago
Here is [part] of what it does to FFLs.
- Requiring physical security measures to prevent firearm theft;
- Clarifying the standards by which licensed dealers, and their employees, are assessed for purposes of license issuance and renewal;
- Repealing long-standing Appropriations Riders that have impeded enforcement of existing law by barring the ATF from using funds to require licensed dealers to conduct physical firearm inventories and prohibiting the public disclosure of firearms trace data; and
- Increasing record retention and electronic data management and sharing for background checks. “
- Require reporting of two or more rifles or shotguns purchased over five consecutive days, same as for pistols.
- Close the indicted dealer loophole, prohibiting licensees immediately upon being indicted for certain crimes from receiving new firearms or transferring any firearms in their business inventory to anyone other than another licensee or a law enforcement agency.
- Require annual inspections for “high risk” gun dealers and inspections for all other gun dealers every five years. Due to existing statutory restrictions and limited resources, only a small fraction of gun sellers are inspected annually, and a large number of those inspections reveal violations.
- Require dealer-applicants and employees trusted with the possession of firearms to undergo background checks for FFL issuance and renewal.
The controllers never sleep. Neither can we.
By the way, can you imagine the work stoppage and inconvenience (for the large stores) of actually taking a complete inventory for a few worthless ATF agents who didn’t have anything better to do that day? Maybe we should encourage them to eat doughnuts rather than making fun of it.

Can’t find the text for it. Probably worse than what made it into the press releases.
