Hi all.

Please, humor me and my persistent impending sense of doom - I live in a state where there is no legislation against 3D2A specifically, so things are legal per the ATF’s stance on PMFs. But what if that changes at state or maybe even federal level someday? Does that create legal exposure if we’ve bought parts from the usual Glock rail vendors, for example? Hard to argue those are for anything other than 2A manufacturing even if for personal use. Just thinking out loud about how to minimize risk.

Thanks.

    Generally, things don’t become a crime retroactively. If the making wasn’t a crime at the time, new laws can’t change that.

    You may not be allowed to continue to possess things that you already made, but they aren’t going to come looking for you unless you do something to draw that attention. At that point whether you bought rails doesn’t matter. You’re either in possession of a prohibited firearm or you’re not.
