Caribbean Firearms Tracing System, Calendar Year 2017 (As of March 9, 2018)
From the introduction: "The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) National Tracing Center (NTC) is the nation's only crime gun tracing facility. As such, the NTC provides critical information that helps domestic and international law enforcement agencies solve firearms crimes, detect firearms trafficking and identify trends with respect to intrastate, interstate and international movement of crime guns. For calendar year (CY) 2012, the NTC traced more than 332,000 firearms; for CY 2013, more than 336,000 firearms; for CY 2014, more than 351,000 firearms; for CY 2015, more than 364,000 firearms; for CY 2016, more than 364,000 firearms; and for CY 2017, more than 400,000 firearms. Over this time period, the NTC has traced firearms for the United States and 134 other countries. [...] This report relates only to firearms recovered in the top five reporting Caribbean nations and traced by ATF. The firearm trace results are based upon the supplied firearm identifiers on the Caribbean trace requests. The Caribbean trace data in this report is organized by the calendar year in which the firearm was recovered, not the year in which the trace was initiated. For example, if a firearm was recovered in 2017 but the trace was not initiated until 2018, the data will be organized in the year of recovery, 2017. Organization by recovery date provides valuable investigative leads as well as more specific trend data."

Department of the Treasury Study on the Sporting Suitability of Modified Semiautomatic Assault Rifles
"On November 14, 1997, the President and the Secretary of the Treasury ordered a review of the importation of certain modified versions of semiautomatic assault rifles into the United States. The decision to conduct this review stemmed in part from concerns expressed by members of Congress and others that the rifles being imported were essentially the same as semiautomatic assault rifles previously determined to be nonimportable in a 1989 decision by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF). The decision also stemmed from the fact that nearly 10 years had passed since the last comprehensive review of the importation of rifles, and many new rifles had been developed during this time. Under 18 U.S.C. section 925(d)(3), the Secretary shall approve applications for importation only when the firearms are generally recognized as particularly suitable for or readily adaptable to sporting purposes (the 'sporting purposes test'). In 1989, ATF denied applications to import a series of semiautomatic versions of automatic-fire military assault rifles. When ATF examined these semiautomatic assault rifles, it found that the rifles, while no longer machineguns, still had a military configuration that was designed for killing and disabling the enemy and that distinguished the rifles from traditional sporting rifles. This distinctively military configuration served as the basis for ATF's finding that the rifles were not considered sporting rifles under the statute."

Bump-Stock-Type Devices
From the Summary: "The Department of Justice is amending the regulations of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) to clarify that bump-stock-type devices -- meaning 'bump fire' stocks, slide-fire devices, and devices with certain similar characteristics -- are 'machineguns' as defined by the National Firearms Act of 1934 and the Gun Control Act of 1968 because such devices allow a shooter of a semiautomatic firearm to initiate a continuous firing cycle with a single pull of the trigger. Specifically, these devices convert an otherwise semiautomatic firearm into a machinegun by functioning as a self-acting or self-regulating mechanism that harnesses the recoil energy of the semiautomatic firearm in a manner that allows the trigger to reset and continue firing without additional physical manipulation of the trigger by the shooter. Hence, a semiautomatic firearm to which a bump-stock-type device is attached is able to produce automatic fire with a single pull of the trigger. With limited exceptions, the Gun Control Act, as amended, makes it unlawful for any person to transfer or possess a machinegun unless it was lawfully possessed prior to the effective date of the statute. The bumpstock-type devices covered by this final rule were not in existence prior to the effective date of the statute, and therefore will be prohibited when this rule becomes effective. Consequently, under the final rule, current possessors of these devices will be required to destroy the devices or abandon them at an ATF office prior to the effective date of the rule."

Definition of 'Frame or Receiver' and Identification of Firearms
From the Summary: "The Department of Justice ('Department') is amending Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives ('ATF') regulations to remove and replace the regulatory definitions of 'firearm frame or receiver' and 'frame or receiver' because the current regulations fail to capture the full meaning of those terms. The Department is also amending ATF's definitions of 'firearm' and 'gunsmith' to clarify the meaning of those terms, and to provide definitions of terms such as 'complete weapon,' 'complete muffler or silencer device,' 'multi-piece frame or receiver,' 'privately made firearm,' and 'readily' for purposes of clarity given advancements in firearms technology. Further, the Department is amending ATF's regulations on marking and recordkeeping that are necessary to implement these new or amended definitions."
