ATF Shifting Goalposts Again on Firearm Receivers

U.S.A. –-(AmmoLand.com)- The BATFE has released a letter to FFLs and the public, “clarifying” their new rules regarding so-called “80% receivers,” which were adopted earlier this year. The general understanding within the industry has been that the new regulation had the impact of requiring “unfinished receivers” to be treated as “firearms” if they were sold together with the parts and tools needed to turn them into functional firearms. The industry responded by separating the “unfinished receivers” from the tools and parts kits and selling them separately, with no jigs, tools, or any other parts needed to finish them. The regulatory changes were not authorized by Congress and are currently being challenged in court as an unconstitutional overstep by the BATFE.

  1. Every fucking time there's a Democrat in the White House, the ATF thinks they've been given carte blanche to re-write the rule book.

  2. What freedom loving American pays any attention to what "they" say anyway? Stay off the so called social media and keep your mouth shut.
