    I think the key is if you are making a profit on a continuous basis.
    I wouldn’t think they would worry about a guy thinning the herd, or at least they shouldn’t, but they’ve done odd stuff before.

    "engaged in the business" does not have a quantity. If you sell 40 in a lot I'd say it would be a non issue. Selling off a collection or trying to stay out of financial ruin.
    Flipping 40 guns one by one would raise a flag, IMO
    Some snips from what may be going in as a new ruling is any profit. The way it's worded it may be illegal to trade up, even though cash is not involved. I also read where if you buy a gun you can't sell it within a 30 day period. How much or how far they want to dive in all depends I guess. I don't want to be stuck with some of the stuff I've outgrown, but it ain't worth risking getting rid of it for 500 and end up in prison. I like my king size bed.

    If you word your ads appropriately, something like “this firearm is from my personal collection, and I am selling it at a financial loss due to health reasons”, you should be fine.

    Just my opinion.

    ÀTF rules now trump law. Yes, pun intended. ATF can now reinterpret their own rules, and enforce those rules as law. All thanks to the last president.

    Use discretion/tact moving foreward.

    Keep complying till you die.... thats the creed of a failed nation full of week men.

    Stand your ground against the ATF. Sell you guns when ever you like for any reason you like. Your already required by law to report any capital gains to the IRS. So whats the true agenda?

    I took some time to read through most of this. Gotta love the tactic of reprinting the history of the world IOT throw everyone off. The one thing that really stood out was the use of the word "intent."

    Words matter. It's way easier to prosecute/convict intent than actual deeds. That's what's happening to trump right now.
    "Intent" to me means, they can tell you what you were thinking.
    Only good thing is none of it matters if you have Soros funded judicial systems.

    Worse than that, they just have to convince a judge, or jury of sheeple, that what they say you were thinking is what you were thinking. Guilty.
