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.

    It would take massive legislation at the federal level to ban PMF or unserialized firearms. While most people think of the 60s as ancient history there are a lot of factory firearms out there made before GCA. Any new legislation would have to address this somehow.

    What is more likely is a state ban. What could go either way if of it banned me manufacturing or possession.

    Either way if what you’re doing now it’s legal there is no future threat for what is already done legally. You’d have to interpret any new legislation and act accordingly.

    It’s impossible for them to know about every transaction that ‘could be’ a firearm part.
