National BATFE pulls another fast one !!!

Apparently, buried in the ton of new rules just published, there is a new one that basically says, "possession is ownership", so if you are the registered owner of an NFA item and you hand it to someone else not registered for 'that' item (like loaning it to a friend while out at the range together), you are now commiting a felony. So, the old 'sharing is caring' is not legal in the eyes of the ATF.

No, it was just in a FAQ, has already been talked about here, and the ATFU already acknowledged it was an error.

Ha! An "error" you say?
And when will they say their "error" was an error?

Since when do the ATF even use that word; error?? Not in their vocabulary.

And just because 'someone' said it was an 'error' doesn't mean they've removed the 'rule', it just means they need a bigger smoke screen.
Besides, even if it is / was and error, there is still a heck of a lot of activity on the subject, from a notable number of 2A sources.

@Xaevian, thank you for the link. I will pass this on to my source.

P.S. I still won't trust them peckerheads. I believe that the rebuttal is merely because they got caught.
