Re: ATF ruling......
Ummm yeah, so what about all the people that completed an 80% lower in some fashion that the ATF now disagrees with? Some previous discussions seemed to imply that so long as the individual did the work themselves, using someone else's equipment was OK.

Re: ATF ruling......
There have been numerous threads here and elsewhere that have discussed cnc parties. I know the ATF put an end to these situations where people essentially showed up, paid a fee, and finished a lower on a cnc.
There must be numerous instances where a few friends got together and completed their own lowers on either a mill, drill press, or even a cnc, where the work was completed by individual.
I'm wondering where all this is going, and if all the people that in fact did attend cnc parties are now felons because they have illegal firearms.
The ATF changes their mind all the time on everything, and I'm pretty sure they don't grandfather anyone in.FUCK BIDEN

Re: ATF ruling......
this whole letter is a clarification on what constitutes manufacturing is, what you cant do without a license. IMO unless you own a shop that hosted this sort of activity it really doesn't affect you. It is still legal for you to finish your own lower with your own tools. you cannot pay/barter/trade someone to finish your own lower unless they are a licensed manufacturer. in those "manufacturing parties" it is the business that would be a felon for operating without a license.

Re: ATF ruling......
So the question is will the ATF start going after companies that were engaged in this practice and bring them up on charges? I can see if money exchanged hands, or some sort of barter was reached they want it to stop.

Re: ATF ruling......
This will also affect "build parties" where guys pool their tools together for parking and building.--Sam

Re: ATF ruling......
Build parties used to be real popular back in the early to late 2000s, every board had them, but they tapered off when they caught the attention of the ATF as they considered that manufacturing. This was back when FAL, AK and other receivers and parts kits were cheap and common and guys were building in bulk for use and resale.
Now it does not state "build parties", but it does cover "Unlicensed machine shops", which is someone that has the tools and equipment for assembling firearms. So if Jim says everybody can come over and use my drill press, welder, and park tanks to build their AKs or whatever that could be considered an unlicensed machine shop.
