I call bullshit on the ATF audit caring. The ATF just audited every dealer at the Littleton Mill in June and July and other than the normal small paperwork issues everyone passed. There was ZERO scrutiny of lower transactions. Inventory audit, one year of 4473s, thank you and good bye. We had every inspector in a 300 mile radius on site, Boston, Hartford, NH, etc.

Now the local licensing authority may have overstepped their authority and pulled the “may issue” state license claiming a violation. I would love to see the details on that one. Pulling based on Healy is a shortcut to court proceedings on a Healy that I have to imagine everyone on our side would jump on.

I bet what really happened is the dealer in question was selling off list guns as frames straight up. Buy gun, break down, sell frame to MA resident, back door the slide. That will get you nailed the moment someone figures it out. It had nothing to do with AR lowers. That is my bet.
