So, all you need to get untraceable guns is some BATFE letterhead, a copy of the signature block and signature of an ATF supervisor, a phone number the FFL can call for someone to answer in the name of the ATF supervisor (or better yet… a pretend secretary BEFORE the pretend ATF agent) and some forged LEO credentials.
Good to know. I’m sure nobody in organized crime will have any problem forging official documentation and impersonating a federal agent if it means untraceable guns last seen in the custody of “Special Agent Mackigicuddy”.

It’s on the front page of the Drudge Report right now. Fox has it, too.
This just went thermonuclear.

I thought nukes caused cancer, not revealed them.

You’ve been able to do this for years. Any FLEO supervisor can authorize firearm purchases.
