Rehberg Leads Letter To ATF Questioning New Dealer Regs

Montana’s Congressman, cialis 40mg Denny Rehberg today sent a bipartisan letter along with 33 co-signers to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco , Firearms and Explosives (BATFE) questioning an “emergency” information request that will require federally licensed firearms retailers to report multiple sales of semi-automatic rifles. The proposal was included in the Federal Register and specifically calls for firearm retailers to report multiple sales, or other dispositions, of two or more .22 caliber or larger semi-automatic rifles that are capable of accepting a detachable magazine and are purchased by the same individual within five consecutive business days.

“It’s not just the new rule gun advocates object to, it’s the presumption that buying multiple guns is a questionable activity that ought to be monitored,” said Rehberg, a member of the Second Amendment Task Force.  “We cross a line when the federal government starts keeping tabs on citizens who are exercising their Constitutional rights in a completely legal manner.  This isn’t about partisanship or politics – this is about standing up for liberty.”-[source]
