6. This is the ruling that changes the way ATF defines who needs a FFL.

From 1st page of order:

“Definition of ‘Engaged in the Business’ as a Dealer in Firearms”

This rule gives the ATF an arbitrary means to prosecute someone for buying/selling personal firearms. If "too many" are sold during an unspecified time (and TF doesn't say how many are "too many&quot one needs a dealer license. Now, ATF has certain rules and regulations regarding issuing of licenses, so not just anyone can get one. One must have a business area in your home, if you are using your home for the address for your license. Separate access to the outside. Zoned for business. ATF inspects your house prior to issuing license. If any fault is found, no license. So, now, the ATF is telling you, you have to have a license if you buy/sell a "secret" number of guns, in an undisclosed time period, but they may not issue you a license, well, because. Then what? Realistically?
