The ATF was takeing All Aftermarket Makarov (or Tokerov)
Aftermarket barrels, they where conducting a investigation
of some crime.
I didnt "see" this my self I was told about it by a coupla of my friends.

sounds a little far-fetched to me to, however, the BATF is known for extremes.

FBI seeking all Makarov replacement barrels

The FBI is conducting a nationwide campaign to seize, and ballistically fingerprint, all Makarov 9 mm replacement barrels manufactured by Federal Arms Corp.

Anyone who has purchased a barrel from FAC may receive a call from the FBI, asking that they "voluntarily" surrender the gun and the barrel so the FBI can fire two rounds through it to take a ballistic fingerprint.

This appears to be part of the investigation into the homicide of Thomas Wales, an Assistant U.S. Attorney who was murdered in his Seattle, WA home in October, 2001. Wales was also involved in Washington CeaseFire, a gun control group. Apparently, ballistics from his homicide indicate that the fatal rounds were fired from a Makarov replacement barrel.

If you are contacted by the FBI regarding your Makarov replacment barrel, contact an attorney IMMEDIATELY before you talk to them or before you surrender your barrels to them.

So now We know the rest of the story

That is one of the most bullying sad excuses for a confiscation I've ever heard.
