Americans are under the worst of the worst when it comes to tyrannical measures concerning 2nd Amendment rights. That was proven on Wednesday morning when in Great Falls, MT at 7 am 20 IRS and ATF agents raided Highwood Creek Outfitters owned by Tom Van Hoose. After Van Hoose had been investigated for two years by the Federal Government the day came when they barged in and seized every Form (4473s – documents) that recorded buyer’s details concerning firearms transactions. (These were not financial records but rather intricate records about the gun owners).
Matt Rosendale was quick to try to help remedy the situation as seen in the article below. Rosendale claimed this was “another example of the Biden regime’s weaponization of federal agencies against hardworking Americans.” (There was no mention of Great Falls Sheriff Jesse Slaughter in the article).
“In an unprecedented move, twenty armed Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) agents carried out a raid on a gun store in Great Falls, Montana, seizing all Form 4473s – documents that record buyer’s information during firearms transactions.
Tom Van Hoose, owner of Highwood Creek Outfitters, alleges that he has been under constant surveillance by state and federal agencies for over two years, KRTV reported.
On Wednesday, the gun shop owner reported an unexpected visit from 20 heavily armed IRS agents at his store.
The agents reportedly arrived at the shop early in the morning, as Van Hoose was opening for the day.
“We have now confirmed that both the IRS and the ATF were at Highwood Creek Outfitters in Great Falls around 7 am this morning. Both the IRS and ATF would not say why they were there,” KMON Radio reported.
“A spokeswoman for the IRS would only say they were there on official IRS business. The ATF says it was providing assistance to the IRS. We attempted to enter the store today and were stopped by agents at the door who would only say that the gun store is closed and will reopen tomorrow,” the news outlet added.
According to Hoose, the federal scrutiny began two years ago and has involved various agencies, including the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Occupational Safety & Health Administration, the Department of Homeland Security, and now, the Internal Revenue Service.”
