I have been a firearms dealer for 46 years, the last 39 years in Santa Rosa County.
I have always strived to facilitate the sale and transfer of firearms to law abiding citizens and keep accurate records. I have had a good relationship with the federal ATF and a clean record. However, ATF has recently changed their rules and enacted a “zero tolerance” policy, resulting in ATF aggressively putting gun store owners, including myself, out of business.
