Trying to figure out the point
The ATF now offers FFL EZ check so that if you need a firearm transferred from another state, the seller can verify that the buyer’s FFL holder is legit. The problem is that nobody I’ve ever used to transfer firearms is willing to transfer based on the FFL EZ check. They still want a signed copy sent to them via snail mail. Even that ATF site says that the EZ Check is no substitute for a copy. I can’t figure out the point of the system.

I can: entrapment.

I don’t get the entrapment issue. Care to elaborate?

I think he means the ATF has a tendency to make it easy on its intended, uhm, victims to violate the law so they can swoop in armed to the teeth and make arrests.
