By the way, even though paperwork may be filed, there can be no effect if no ATF types are following up.
Some years ago, the Feds required banks to file documents whenever anyone made a deposit = or > $10,000 in cash.
They stumbled across a money launderer during a criminal investigation. He had routinely been making deposits big
enough to have these documents filed.

The banks he was using were filing all the proper documentation - but nobody was monitoring the paperwork!!
I'd like to think the same thing will happen with the new paper trail. Of course the NRA lawsuit may stop this, but later.

Just to prove how they are working on that incrementalism, the minimum amount to trigger reporting a check to the feds is now $1,000. I suspect it to be the same for EFT and cash amounts as well.
The "Bank Secrecy Act" required CASH transactions (withdrawals or deposits) of $10,000 or more to be reported. I don't believe giving somebody a check (for any amount) would be reported. Do you have some backup that the amount is now $1000?
