The commenter opposes the proposed action, arguing that requiring biological sex on ATF forms could conflict with state IDs and lead to unwarranted denials of sales. They contend that the proposal is counter-intuitive for accurate background checks and violates Second Amendment rights.

The commenter, identifying as a gun owner, opposes the proposed action to select biological sex on ATF forms. They argue that gender is irrelevant to firearm ownership and that the agency should focus on safety and training rather than political correctness.
