    It's anonymous, no context needed, just send a photo, video, or even just a description of what you saw...or thought you saw...or wanted to see. This app is ripe for abuse by anti-gunners as a sort of "swatting" and also for trolling by those so inclined. No way this is going to be successful. I can see the antis going to gunshows and ranges and sending pictures and videos of all sorts of things that they don't like to the BATFE - and I'm sure the antis will check with the owner to see if they have NFA paperwork before reporting on some scary gun.

    I think in time, it will be established that the only thing which until now prevented mankind from devolving into unthinking simian brutes, was the mere lack of a technological platform allowing them to communicate with each other, massively and instantly.

    Anonymous, you say? And what is to stop somebody from sending 10,000 pictures of the same blank wall to them?

    Though since the ATF is heading this I imagine 1. it's not really anonymous if they don't want it to be and 2. sending in stupid pictures is probably some sort of felony.

    You mean like when I see a Charter Arms or a Hi Point I need to call the ATFE?

    Or, I see someone open carrying in an Uncle Mike's holster?

    Or, someone has abused his AR-15 by dragging it through the Brownell's cataglogue?
