Look at all these cowering posts. Are these the writings of a free people?
The build parties are most popular in California where every gun sale must go through a dealer and be recorded by the state. I imagine the same restrictions apply to other leftist hell holes. Then you have those who just don’t want to leave a paper trail. Even in Texas when I see people selling AR’s person to person the seller usually insists on doing a transfer even though it is not legally required.
To your point I have found that I can get a good lower shipped and transfered for less than the cost of an 80% lower.
True, lowers are dirt cheap.
You can get the whole damn gun for $700-$800, or even less.
Are we free?
See if one of the old farts at your local gun store will teach you the secret hand shake :-)
I did the dorm thing. The one I stayed in was like going back in time to the early 70s. A weird feeling.
I got through EAA without spending a lot of money. The dorm people pointed me to Green Bay and the stadium tour. I don’t care about football but the tour was interesting and learned a lot. It was that day trip that made a noticeable dent in the budget.
The railroad museum was really interesting. I liked it better.
I flip through the magazines and pass them on to my uncle who was a chopper mechanic.
They could sell tens of thousands in time
bump to digest later
It was rhetorical. We all know the answer.
“Well, what do you know.... our harddrive crashed... then the dog ate it and it was lost in an electro-magnet for a bit before being shredded.... but you can have the pieces”
They’re not into ARs. Just collecting old cowboy guns.
Thanks. I’ve read some opinions where you can add a serial number and transfer them through a FFL.
You need more than a drill press unless you are EXTREMELY good at operating it. The 80% lowers sold today have the trigger well solid.
“You need more than a drill press unless you are EXTREMELY good at operating it. The 80% lowers sold today have the trigger well solid.”
No you don’t. A drill and a dremmel will do it, even on the solid fire control lowers. It just takes more time (a lot more), but can still be done in less than a good solid work day.
A vice is nice to have, but C clamps and some wood can work also.
So the anti-gunner’s new term to scare each other is “ghost gun”.
I would think you would have to get licensed as a manufacturer.
I’m not sure what you mean by making “a 100% receiver ONCE legally”, but you can make as many as you want and you can transfer them in your will.
Thanks for clearing up the will thing.
Yep, there is a M1911 manufacturer in Idaho that built 80% frames and invited all their buyers over to use their machines to finish the frame. Since they simply instructed the purchaser how to do it and did not do the work, there was nothing the feds could do.
