You always have two ways you can go with ATF:
1. The easy way.
This is the way Haris went.
They will probably never bother him again.
They will see the FUTURE multiple sale reports on Haris, and if they check his file, they'll see the agent's report stating Haris is a legit collector and ignore them.
Haris made "points" with this visit.
2. The Hard Way.
You can order them off your property and tell them to come back with a warrant.
MAYBE they just wanted to ask what you did with a Colt Python you bought new ten years ago that turned up in a triple murder in New York City. You could have told them you traded it to Joe's gun shop about nine years ago while seated at your kitchen table with them.
Now, you can tell them that while you look at your carpet wearing bracelets.
Maybe it won't be that bad.
Maybe they won't ever come back.
But somewhere there is a file cabinet with a file in it that has your name on it, and a BIG red flag. There is probably a note which says "Bears further scrutiny".
In southern vernacular: "They gone be watchin' you!".
When you have two choices, the easy way is usually the best way if it is not illegal or immoral.
That agent left Haris with the knowledge that all the gunowners he checks won't be criminals or fanatics.
My opinion only.
Do what you feel the need to do.
