About

ATF is a law enforcement agency in the United States’ Department of Justice that protects our communities from violent criminals, criminal organizations, the illegal use and trafficking of firearms, the illegal use and storage of explosives, acts of arson and bombings, acts of terrorism, and the illegal diversion of alcohol and tobacco products. We partner with communities, industries, law enforcement, and public safety agencies to safeguard the public we serve through information sharing, training, research, and use of technology.

What we do

Firearms

ATF recognizes the role that firearms play in violent crimes and pursues an integrated regulatory and enforcement strategy. Investigative priorities focus on armed violent offenders and career criminals, narcotics traffickers, narco-terrorists, violent gangs, and domestic and international arms traffickers. Sections 924© and (e) of Title 18 of the United States Code provide mandatory and enhanced sentencing guidelines for armed career criminals and narcotics traffickers as well as other dangerous armed criminals.

ATF uses these statutes to target, investigate and recommend prosecution of these offenders to reduce the level of violent crime and to enhance public safety. ATF also strives to increase State and local awareness of available Federal prosecution under these statutes. To curb the illegal use of firearms and enforce the Federal firearms laws, ATF issues firearms licenses and conducts firearms licensee qualification and compliance inspections. In addition to aiding the enforcement of Federal requirements for gun purchases, compliance inspections of existing licensees focus on assisting law enforcement to identify and apprehend criminals who illegally purchase firearms.

Explosives

Federal explosives law and regulations affect all persons who import, manufacture, deal in, purchase, use, store, or possess explosive materials. They also affect those who ship, transport, cause to be transported, or receive explosive materials. ATF plays a vital role in regulating and educating the explosives industry, and in protecting the public from inadequate storage and security.

Explosive materials are any chemical compound, mixture, or device, the primary or common purpose of which is to function by explosion. The term includes, but is not limited to, dynamite and other high explosives, black powder, pellet powder, initiating explosives, detonators, safety fuses, squibs, detonating cord, igniter cord, and igniters.
Persons who manufacture explosives for their personal, non-business use (e.g., making fireworks to set off on your own property or mixing binary explosive components to remove a stump in your own yard) are not required to have a manufacturer’s license. However, no person may ship, transport, cause to be transported, or receive explosive materials unless such person holds a license or permit.

Alcohol & Tobacco

ATF's Alcohol and Tobacco Enforcement Programs purpose is to target, identify, and dismantle criminal enterprises with ties to violent crime, that traffic illicit liquor or contraband tobacco in interstate commerce; seize and deny their access to assets and funds; and prevent their encroachment into the legitimate alcohol or tobacco industry.
As of January 24, 2003, The U.S. Department of the Treasury, Alcohol and Tobacco Trade & Tax Bureau (TTB)[url=https://www.ttb.gov/index.shtml][/url], is responsible for all inquiries in regards to the:

• Manufacture, wholesale and importation of alcohol and tobacco;
  
• Regulating the alcohol and tobacco industries and Special Occupational TAX (SOT); and
  
• Collection of the Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Ammunition Excise Taxes imposed on manufactures and importers of these products.
  

It is unlawful for any person to ship, transport, receive, possess, sell, distribute, or purchase more than 10,000 cigarettes without evidence of State cigarette tax payment.

We also partner with communities, industry, law enforcement and public safety agencies to safeguard the public we serve through information sharing, training, research and technology.

Good Evening,

ATF director, Ryan McGarvey, issued a statement this evening regarding an incident with FUMUKU International.

"It is as of now that the operations our agency conducts will be stepped up. This sort of behaviour from those assumed by the general public to be the "good guys" is digusting. These people, the ones trusted by the civilian population as merchents, service provides and security officers have clearly broken this trust and vital link between the public and "FUMUKU". As of 19th May 2017 any and all FUMUKU officers are to be placed on an ATF watchlist. If you see ANY FUMUKU officers using equipment they are not authorised to use, for example: Firearms such as the commonly used AR-15, you are to immediately report it to an ATF Federal Agent or the local authorities. If you witness such criminal offences being commited and fail to report it we reserve the right to detain you for questioning.

Finally, I am requesting that all citizens avoid approaching any armed FUMUKU personal and remain vigilant when using their services or entering any of their buildings."
