Karl David and John David appeal from the district court's entry of summary judgment against them on their Bivens^*  claim against Kenneth G. Mosley, a Special Agent with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (BATF), and their § 1983 claim against Taylor V. Blanton, a Virginia State Police Officer on assignment to BATF. Karl David was a federally licensed firearms dealer who ran his business out of the home he occupied with his son, John David. Based on information that Karl David (who was under indictment in Virginia for embezzlement) was receiving firearms shipments in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(n) and that Karl David had falsely denied on a BATF license renewal form, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 924(a) (1) (A), that he was under indictment for a crime punishable by a prison term exceeding one year, Agent Mosley obtained, and executed with the assistance of Officer Blanton, a search warrant for the home of Karl and John David. In their complaint the Davids claimed that the warrant was obtained and executed without probable cause and that the search exceeded the scope of the warrant. The district court rejected their claims, granting summary judgment to the officers. The Davids' appeal is now before us for decision.

After considering the joint appendix, the briefs and the arguments of counsel, we affirm for the reasons stated in the district court's thorough opinion. See David v. Mosley, 915 F. Supp. 776 (E.D. Va. 1996).
