Local guy was building AR's from Palmetto lowers, last week the ATF swept in unannounced and seized 500 of them. Broke into his house when he wasn't home, demanded the combinations to his safes or they'd take the cutting torch to them. Left a stack of paperwork explaining the charges and how they'd return the guns.

I’d buy a truckload of stripped lowers and sell them those since that’s technically “the gun”.

Keep dreaming. They'll tax you $$$ if you keep them or you can turn them in.

Even if this did happen.
You can rest assured the goons will have a complete list and what they go for value wise.
I wonder what the aussies got on their mandatory turn in program for their guns.
Or the brits.
Probably next to nothing if anything or the threat of jail.....
One or the other.

Do I get to buy a truckload of $400 shìtsticks the week before this law is passed? If so, then yes, I would sell them a truckload of $5,000 shìtsticks. No, you only have six of them. Hard pass. When the zombie blue helmet Mongolians invade, I will need backups This

The " gun " is done Assembling and or selling outside of the law is what he proly got nailed for. My guess is his stuff was in SBR config or he did straw.

I obviously disagree with the “law” but if he were selling them without an FFL in that quantity he was probably raided for being a dealer without an FFL.

A friend of mine that was an FFL dealer and also a competitive benchrest guy and a very good Machinist. But by just a basic 700 ADL clean up the action rebarrel it drop it in a McMillan stock shoot some matches with it. And he would price anything. And he sold it sold a few of them that way even though it was just strictly within the hobby of the bench matches. ATF one day on one of their checks on dealers seen some barrels and such and highly recommended he not do that no more that he could get in trouble for manufacturing.

I think I remember those regs coming under Obama. The atf redefined what it meant to be a gunsmith. As you said anyone that does nearly any work on a firearm is a “smith” and needs to be licensed/taxed ect.

I would sell both of mine. Neither have been out of the gun safe since 2014. I’m not sure what you’ve got or your shooting lifestyle but one of mine has become my go to Varmit gun I got into them about 5 years ago, and since then have realized how dang versatile they are. They also breed in the safe, so I'd have to at least hang on to 2. One female and one male.. Good one bsa1917
