A few months ago, I bought a couple of WASR UFs. I quite liked them both. Then, I decided to buy a couple of Polish UFs. The Polish UFs were held up due to, what my FFL holder told me, was because the BATF wanted to know why I was buying "so many AKs". I probably purchased all of these within a 3-4 month period of time. My second purchase was withheld for about a week (which really annoyed me as my FFL wouldn't give me a straight answer as to what the hold up was during that time) while , I am assuming, the BATF decided whether or not I should be allowed 2 more AKs. The main reason I made the purchases was because I have been wanting them for a long time and am sick of sitting back while prices keep going up, and up.... and up.
This now has me a bit worried and, to be honest, I've been a bit uneasy and a little stressed over the whole thing. I would like to buy some ammo because it is only getting more and more expensive as well, and I'm seriously concerned that purchasing ammo will raise another "red flag". I am a law-abiding citizen. The only law that I break is the occasional speeding. I think it's safe to say that 80+% of the population occasionally drive faster than the speed limit. So, why on earth is the BATF looking into and holding up my purchases? Is this something that is normal procedure for the BATF when such purchases are being made? Should I be concerned over this? Do any of you guys have similar experiences with similar purchases?
Lastly, I decided to post this in this section rather than the "Legal" section because I figure that the guys in here probably buy a fair amount of firearms. If a moderator thinks this thread would be better suited in another section, feel free to move it to that section. Thanks.
