Four years later, the ATF was on Moore’s tail again, this time in response to an alert that Moore and Anderson were selling incendiary ammunition rounds and flares to an ex-convict in Oregon. Federal law forbade out-of-state sales to anyone without a federal firearms license, much less a convicted arsonist and attempted murderer who could not legally buy weaponry at all. The ATF considered bringing a case but ultimately decided not to.

Did this history of abortive investigations indicate that Moore enjoyed special protection? Bill Buford, the head of the ATF in Arkansas in the early 1990s, did not exclude it. He cited other possible reasons—evidence rules and gun lobby pressure not to enforce federal firearms license regulations—why the two ATF-related cases did not go forward. Buford would not confirm that the ATF faced political obstacles beyond these procedural difficulties. But he also did not deny it.
