ATF Posts Proposed Rule Change Redefining What Counts as a "Frame or Receiver"

Also redefined are terms like "readily." That's way more important than it sounds. You can be found guilty of certain things if you have the parts that they consider to be "readily convertible." They're now trying to expand readily to mean anything you can do in a fully equipped machine shop in an 8 hour day, if I recall correctly. Even if you don't have a fully equipped machine shop. That means they're going to claim all 80% lowers are now firearm receivers and all uppers are now frames or receivers that require an FFL and a serial number. So yeah, you'll have to go through a background check every time you buy an upper.

There's a whole lot more bad shit coming with this new rule too. Privately made firearms have always been legal for personal use without having to have a serial number. That will now change. They are going to say that any gun made after 1968 must have a serial number, even if you made it yourself, whether that's using 3D printing, an 80% lower, etc. They're not passing any new law to do this, they're just trying to rule by decree.

So this is in effect now? So basically if you have an upper without serial number then it’s now illegal?

True just wondering how ATF is framing this one, so basically if you’re caught with an upper with no serial you’re getting an illegal weapons charge.

Re: ATF Posts Proposed Rule Change Redefining What Counts as a "Frame or Receiver"
Every time they try this, it gets shot down by just one of the 1000's of lawsuits filed against them. Even Trump got shut down over the unconstitutional bump stock ban. It won't stand! They don't have the authority that they proclaim unless the people decide to not fight this in court, or rely on someone else to fight this battle for them. I for one, am ready and willing to challenge this thru the court system, if they push this issue. I'm sure that several States will push back against this as well, because it violates State Law and classification. It's only a firearm after it has been milled. It only needs serial numbers and paperwork (form 7) if it is to be sold or willed. Other than that, it's just a parts kit and/or a personal use firearm, which is legal in most states.

What the atf is doing is not regulating but instead data mining both the makers of 80% parts and their legal customers. If they rely on the language of tools and equipment that could be used to manufacture a firearm, then every living person in this country is guilty by default. A Screwdriver, drill, hammer, etc will now get you arrested for intent because those are just a few of the tools necessary to build a firearm.

Re: ATF Posts Proposed Rule Change Redefining What Counts as a "Frame or Receiver"
When the gubment gets their tax increases, like alcohol and tobacco recently, then all this doom about firearms will start to fade away.

Last year an 80% lower could cost you as less as $40. This year, the cheapest I've seen are around $150 (that are available). When the atf places it usage tax on all parts, the price will double or triple again, making an 80 lower in excess of $300. And all you'll have to do to buy one is present your ID in the checkout box in an online store. They may even limit the purchases to remain in your state, just like with alcohol and tobacco. Just another excuse for hyperinflation and gubment price gouging

This is an attack on sellers. It only matters to you if you have to defend yourself. Then they’ll charge you.

Sellers of %80 receivers will no longer be able to do so without an FFL transaction. applies to many other things as well

No they can't! They always try but get sued by 1000's of individuals and groups. They nearly always lose....but so do a few martyrs who get targeted by the atf, while the court cases are being heard.
