A Second Amendment advocacy group filed a lawsuit against the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives over the agency's "Zero tolerance" policy to shut down gun stores.
Gun Owners of America filed a suit against the ATF on Tuesday over the agency's rigid inspection guidelines for federal firearms licens.
"This zero tolerance policy towards lawful commerce guaranteed by the Second Amendment is just the latest example of this Administration weaponizing federal agencies against their political enemies," GOA senior vice president Erich Pratt told Fox News Digital.
INTERNAL ATF DOCS SHOW 'ZERO TOLERANCE' GUIDELINES FOR SHUTTING DOWN GUN STORES. "It also is just one more compelling piece of evidence to support gun owners' demands that Congress defund the ATF," Pratt added.
Gun Owners Foundation board member Sam Paredes told Fox News Digital it's "Ridiculous that good people trying to make an honest living are facing this assault on their livelihoods simply over inconsequential paperwork errors."
On Tuesday, the GOA filed the lawsuit Morehouse Enterprises v. ATF, following the first lawsuit filed by North Dakota gun store Morehouse Enterprises and backed by the Second Amendment advocacy group over the Biden administration's frame and receiver rule, also known as the ghost gun rule.
The ATF visited Morehouse after their initial lawsuit and found five violations out of 5,000 gun acquisitions or sales, and had never visited the gun store before the initial lawsuit.
