There has been a vey low-key announcement by the state attorney general that the 1934 state gun laws (based on model laws written after NFA 1934), does mean what it says, and, yes, if BATFE approves, NFA goodies are legal after all. 70+ years of RAT attorneys general had maintained the exact opposite, using the Clintonian logic of "it depends on what your definition of 'is' is."
My buddy, who had a Class III FFL prior to the Clinton regime, says the word is out to wait until after the first of the year. He has some cans in his plans, and is also looking to go into Title II manufacturing. I can wait a few months more.
Besides, while that $200 tax stamp is now almost laughably cheap in today's world, that little bit of plumbing is obscenely expensive. If I get one, I'll get threaded barrels for my Glock 21 and Sig P220 for starters. I'm more interested in going the SBR route, and if my buddy gets the manufacturer's license, SBRs and full-auto conversions become possible, and perhaps even affordable.
I'm puzzled about the total silence from the leftists. They had multiple cows over "shall issue", so I can't believe they will let this go without some high-power hysteria on their part. They probably have a lot of shoes on hand, ready to drop.
