evlblkwpnz 3,418 Posted January 14, 2017 Report Share Posted January 14, 2017 I don't see it happening. BATFE does a lot more than what we see on the surface and I can guarantee you these other agencies would rather not take all of that on even though there is already some overlap in jurisdictions. I just don't think the effect will wholly be what some might imagine. Having said that, I would like to see the SA get back to its original intent regardless of how it is achieved. Form 1 MGs would be nice. A lot of ATF investigators will likely be migrating to FBI or IRS if it does happen and it may amount to a shuffling of the deck, same rules and just different agencies. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

HB of CJ 1,263 Posted January 15, 2017 Report Share Posted January 15, 2017 Eliminating even the Firearms division of the BATFE would be nice. That and the elimination of all the various major and minor Federal Gun Laws. Plus a SCOTUS ruling that any infringement of the Second Amendment is very illegal.
