Red's Guns back in business

Posted by David Hardy · 2 May 2007 09:18 AM

A federal district judge has issued a preliminary injunction suspending their license revocation until he can determine the merits. The ruling itself could be routine, but the findings the judge made sound like he's leaning against the revocation. It's astonishing that they had two BATFE inspections without a problem -- every sale of a gun requires, as I recall, 42 handwritten entries, so it's almost impossible for a dealer to go for a year without having mistakes.

I know the local gun shops I frequent go over the forms with a fine tooth comb and get everything corrected just so before proceeding. It is so easy to make a simple mistake like leaving off the county in the address (numerous errors on my part) to forgetting to fill in your birthday and of course all those N/A s + initial to indicate you read definitions, etc.

Why if one were predisposed to believe ill intent on the part of the government you might even think they did those things on purpose to get people to make mistakes. I'm sure the real answer is that the form designers were morons rather than evil.

At any rate, I get the impression from the shop owners that they live in fear of a simple oversight that might cost them their FFL.
