With it being Arkansas you never know, interesting write-up from his workplace, I'd imagine he would have to move quite a few guns at profit for the ATF to take notice. Which FWIW it sounds like it was more than selling his personal collection.

Attorney and gun laws expert Jeff Wankum of Wankum Law Firm in North Little Rock said lawyers are familiar with private gun sales and what federal agents identified as part of the gun show loophole
“There’s a lot of debate about what they call the ‘gun show loophole,’” Wankum stated.
He said the loophole essentially boils down to the blurry line when a private gun seller becomes a business. There isn’t a set line for how many guns someone can sell a year in Arkansas. The question ATF looks at is why someone is selling the guns.
If someone is buying and selling repeatedly predominantly to earn a profit, the ATF does not consider that a private seller anymore. They consider that a violation because it is effectively dealing in firearms without a license along with unlawfully acquiring them are the alleged violations that resulted in the search warrant for Malinowski’s home.
 A federal firearms license allows a person to sell guns commercially, but anyone can sell a gun privately. While FFL holders must perform background checks and keep a thorough record of all transactions, private sellers do not.
Bryan Malinowski, the Little Rock airport executive shot by ATF agents, dies from injuriesHowever, the legal documents claim Malinowski bought as many as 24 guns at once saying they were for him and he would then allegedly resell the guns in some cases as little as 24 hours.
“With what he was dealing with there was a volume that went along with the speed that his stuff was being sold, and that is obviously what piqued the interest of the ATF,” Wankum said.
ATF stated the only question Malinowski asked undercover agents was whether they were 21 when selling handguns. Wankum explained that, legally, that is all Malinowski had to do.
