The scarier part of this story is how gun shops have to give over firearm sale information to the feds. I thought that data was supposed to be safe from a potentially tyrannical govt.
The ATF has the "authority" to demand the records at any time if you are an FFL. And the FFL is required to keep records for a term of 20 years. If you ever close or go out of buisiness all records are "required" to be sent to the ATF.
This could be about literally anything.

"Sorry Mr. ATF - I lost all my records in a boating accident." 🤣
