Biden’s Zero Tolerance Policy Drove 1,826 Licensed Gun Dealers Out of Business in 2021 and 2022

While the BATF claims that during the last half of 2021 they drove 5 FFLs out of business and an additional 88 in 2022, a lawsuit by Gun Owners of America found that the number of FFLs where a compliance inspection resulted in them going out of business increased from 96 in 2020 to 789 in 2021 to 1,037 in 2022. The Biden administration started its zero-tolerance policy in 2021. That is a 10-fold increase in compliance enforcement forcing gun dealers out of business between 2020 and 2022. The numbers for 2021 were lower in part because it undoubtedly took the BATF time to implement the new rules.
