View attachment 184058 The 80% lowers the ATF confiscated from what I researched were complete kits. These included all the parts to build a complete pistol. That is where the company screwed up. By definition that would be a firearm even though not assembled requiring a serial # and sold thru a FFL.

But was it an 80% lower that required machining part of the lower to complete the kit. If so, by my understanding, that met the letter of the 'law' aka rule aka interpretation by bureaucrats.

I understand by the letter of the law it was not a firearm. And this is a grey area, but by including everything needed to complete the ATF says it is essentially a firearm requiring a serial #. I believe if offered in two separate kits this would have never been a issue. There has to be something in the regulations though I have not found it yet about this. No other company offers a complete kit with a 80% lower that I'm aware of. Will Polymer80 win in a court case that will be question.

That doesn't sound right.

The point of all this is that unlike most every other aspect of the law, We The People will not be allowed to exploit legal loopholes in firearms laws. The point is people stopped fearing the ATF, so the ATF is correcting that troublesome trend. That push will accelerate substantially come next January when Biden is sworn in. He's not going to be able to put every MSR and 11+ mag on the NFA Registry, but his minions will be able to raid every brace, 80% paperweight and binary trigger manufacturer to seize their inventory and customer lists. If you have any of those things, you might as well set them aside now for confiscation if you didn't pay cash for them on the 2nd hand market.

Quite frankly, I don't think there's a court in the land with the balls to stop the ATF, and that includes SCOTUS. They never cared about us before and they certainly don't now. :(
