Uhh...technically the atf is not supposed to exist right? Same with numerous other ABC agencies? As it was not enumerated in the constitution...and they do not have authority to pass laws....just make rules and regulations for their own agency...

BATFE is an Enforcement Agency. Special Police as it were. It does not fall under the remit of enforcement agencies to make rules for enforcement. Just like your Sheriff doesn't make the laws in your county, but can choose to not enforce some laws on the books as constitutional issues arise.

SGT (Join to see) so atf is different or the same? And dont they come out with guidance like bump stocks are machineguns or any rifle with a barrel less than 16 inches is evil and will cause a nuclear explosion unless you get a permission slip for your own property? Like i understand they are very interested in guns drugs and anything the government can tax, but how do they get their directives unless it is through law. Example of the bumpstocks being banned as machine guns and the registry not being open, but they said they were fine forever. Or pistol braces on the honey badger are bad, but pistol braces on every other pistol are fine? I know law makers are not involved in that kind of stuff so technically how do they enforce non laws and ruin peoples lives for infractions of their own rules and not federal law? I think thats my understanding of the atf/batfe. I know they have the tech division and i think another, but from what i understand the stuff they put out are not codified into actual law?

I reposted my response to you under the law topic and asked for our legal "Experts" for a clarification.
