No Joke! ATF Bans Stockpiles of Kitchen Scrub Pads

Put down the Chore Boy and back away from the weaponry!”
It’s an order that actually could be heard, given that a letter has surfaced from the federal government warning against consumers stockpiling Chore Boy household scrubbers because they can be considered a component of a gun silencer and, therefore, regulated by federal gun laws.
The letter is from the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, the ATF. It was obtained by David Codrea, who publishes online as the Gun Rights Examiner.
And it comes from a federal agency that earlier determined a 14-inch-long piece of shoestring must be regulated under federal gun laws and restrictions because it is a “machinegun.”
The latest unusual determination from the agency is found in a letter submitted to the agency on behalf of a client. The letter is dated Nov. 26, 2010, and Codrea said it was obtained recently.
In it, an attorney was asking about a repair that a client wished to make on an already-registered silencer for a .22 caliber rifle.
“Does sound/gas absorbing materials manufactured from Chore Boy copper clean pads, along with fiberglass insulation, constitute a silencer part as defined in 18 U.S.C 921(a)(24)?” he asked.
“Yes,” confirmed the letter signed by John R. Spencer, the chief of the Firearms Technology Branch.

They have too much time on their hands because their jobs are unnecessary in the first place. Allow a Govt to create it's own jobs and it will never stop growing.

All that the ATF are doing is pretending that they are doing their job......they know as well as I do that mosquito screen rolled around the barrel is the thing to use, are they next going to outlaw?, mosquito screen?.

Now you know why I don't keep any firearm in my property.....
