Chicago - Perhaps the federal Gun Control Act needs a little tweaking. This suggestion comes on the heels of a revelation this month that a the property owner of a suburban Chicago gun shop, whose owners have been charged with illegal gun sales, is none other than alleged Chicago Outfit boss John "No Nose" DiFronzo. Frank Main, a Chicago Sun Times reporter writes, "The federal Gun Control Act only requires a background check for those applying for a license. But the law does not direct the US Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms to check the background of the property owner." An official from the agency stated, "That a store leasing from a top mobster was able to get a firearms license demonstrates the weakness of the law." A former ATF official claimed, "You need to make sure, for example, that the address is not an outlaw motorcycle gang’s hangout." We at AM.com concur. In his article Main informs us that, "The city has sued ATF to obtain national gun trace and multiple gun purchase data to confirm how many guns sold by defendants in the city’s suit wound up in the hands of criminals. A federal judge has ordered ATF to turn over the records, but the federal government appealed and the case is pending." DiFronzo, the 73 year-old leader of the Outfit, is said to be holding down the throne until the release of James "Little Jimmy" Marcello from Milan Federal prison in Michigan next year
