The FAET dates from 1919. Originally the tax was collected by the IRS. Since 1991 the tax has been collected by the BATFE. Not sure how BP guns can be taxed.

Firearms and Ammunition Excise Tax (FAET) is a federal tax imposed on the sale of firearms and ammunition by manufacturers, producers, and importers. This tax was created for the first time in 1919 pursuant to the provisions of Chapter 32 of the Internal Revenue Code.
