Re: 80% Suppressor Manufacturer raided??
I'm torn. On one hand seeing ATF move against these kinds of technically legal manufacturers annoys me as abuse of power, on the other hand I'm surprised its taken them so long to go after businesses who are skirting the law by their marketing of a product designed as the equivelent of bathtub gin.
This whole 80% thing to me has always been a case of playing with fire with all the legal chincary of evading compliance. I'd hate to see the world of home built guns be abolished because of a few fringe manufacturers who keep poking the tiger from the edge of the cage so to speak.

Re: 80% Suppressor Manufacturer raided??
Manufacturing firearms for your personal use is legal. Filing a Form 1 and building a suppressor is legal. These companies merely facilitate the process for more average hobbyists and machinists.
These companies and 99.99% of the people that patronize them are doing nothing wrong (even when not considering the NFA as unconstitutional bullshit).

This is nothing more than data acquisition and fear factor.
There will be at least 4 more years of this.

Re: 80% Suppressor Manufacturer raided??
Littering is against the law. No "skirting."
Building your own personal firearm with an 80% lower is 100% legal, no "skirting the law" there. Now if you decide to sell it or do otherwise with it, that's a different story, but what ATF is doing is essentially morphing into THOUGHT POLICE territory. How tf do they know what you intend to do with your homemade personal firearm? It's none of their business until you break the law. I don't believe any government agency is charged with policing peoples' thoughts or intentions.
Likewise, nobody building a suppressor and jumping through the Form 1 hoops is "skirting the law."
Are you ok with ATF (1) changing rules depending upon wind direction and (2) investigating people doing things legally? I sure hope not.
