In 2017, Chicago singled out 13 gun stores that supplied a disproportionate number of the city’s crime guns. Our reporting shows when @ATFHQ discovered violations at these dealers, it routinely issued softer penalties than federal guidelines warranted — including this example at Westforth Sports in Gary, Indiana. Read more about the other stores from reporter Champe Barton — published in partnership with @USATODAY — via the link in our bio.
