Delaware: House Hearing Bill to Ban Home-Built Firearms
NRA Institute for Legislative Action ^ | 20 May 2021 | NRA-ILA

Posted on 05/20/2021 6:15:10 PM PDT by COBOL2Java


Today, the House is hearing House Bill 125, to essentially end the centuries-old practice of home-built firearms for personal use and to ban existing home-built firearms. Please contact your state representative and ask them to OPPOSE HB 125.

House Bill 125 imposes requirements that far exceed those in federal law. It prohibits private individuals from possessing certain unregulated components commonly used by hobbyists to make their own firearms. It also bans possessing existing home-built firearms that have been made since 1968, which are currently legal, or distributing digital files that can be used to program 3D printers to make certain firearm components.

Imagine what the “evil doers” are going to do once they disarm everyone. And yes, it is happening.

Anybody with any sense will be non-compliant, not disarmed.

Since when is this a problem that needs solving? Has some crime wave been linked to these?

This is unenforceable.

Not long ago some clymer here was emoting about how special he was about having the 2nd amendment and mocking interest in gun smithing skills. When manufacturers are defunct there will be people with skills and those with self important puffery. Those of us in the former group will have weapons, those in the latter group will be able to rap about us.

You learn something every day. Why would law enforcement officers in Delaware need untraceable firearms?

"Finally, this bill makes clear that § 1463 of Title 11 concerning untraceable firearms does not apply to members of the military forces or members of a police force in this State duly authorized to carry an untraceable firearm, and does not apply to the manufacture or importation for sale to a law-enforcement or military entity in this State."

Has anyone ever heard of a situation outside of the CIA where a law enforcement official is "authorized to carry an untraceable firearm"?

Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin’s thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn’t love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.”

― Aleksandr I. Solzhenitsyn , The Gulag Archipelago 1918–1956

Shocked that they were ever legal in that liberal hellhole.

The dubious basis for the governments regulating firearms at all specifically excludes authority to do this.

I believe that these are the standard “throw down guns” that many police carry.

This law is so bad Roberts might even vote it down. . . . . . . Maybe

Americans were building home made firearms before we were a nation. In the Regulator War of 1770, the British hanged several gunsmiths to prevent guns in the hands of Americans.
