Seriously, watch that, think about the stories we have heard about the ATF and soft primers and what they are willing to do to get a conviction. Then think about all the fireams codes. I have the books they put out which may not cover all of them and they are about two inches thick! I don't see how talking to an ATF agent is any different than talking to the IRS like he explains in the video. Sure you don't think you did anything wrong, certainly nothing immoral or intentionally wrong, but are you willing to bet your life that you violated nothing at all in those thousands of pages of code? Because that's what you are doing. IANAL but I think you need one before talking to the ATF about any criminal investigation or really anything for that matter.
:iagree: 100%!!!

Re: ATF Email

I understand this is Memorial Day weekend and we will be by the pool and doing the BBQ thing, but when time permits this weekend or early next week could you please either email me back that you got this or call me next week so I can take a little bit of your time to pick your brain about this individual?
I thank you for your time and look forward to speaking with you.

To me this just smells of some bad investigative technique...

If they knew who you are, and have the gumption of contacting you in this manner, instead of paying you a visit, or at the very least establish contact thru a phone call...

They should have expected to get these types of responses anyway..."I didn't sell him anything..."

This is a fishing expedition...And even if you did sell them something, that is not illegal...

They are building up some cases where someone will admit to selling this "Chuy" something...That way they can quantify cases where guns are going to "someplace" foreign, from "somewhere" domestically...Plain and simple...

They also want to establish evidence to support the banning of face to face sales, without first going theu an FFL or conducting an NCIC check or something...

This is just my opinion...
