ATF and the firearm industry collaborate to keep firearm retail stores secure, prosecute individuals who burglarize firearm retailers, and to inform the public that it’s illegal to purchase a firearm for someone who cannot pass a background check.
Thousands of safer firearm stores and illegal straw purchases prevented.
