National BATFE - Biden Executive Action to Require Background Check on Serial Number-less Guns

[RicInOR]

The Coming Crackdown on ‘Ghost Guns’ | National Review

Homemade ‘ghost guns’ are the next frontier in the gun-control fight.

www.nationalreview.com

that the Biden administration is considering an executive action to require background checks for these serial-number-less "ghost guns" as well. It's not clear how broad the rule will be.

Under current federal policy, it's legal to make a gun for your own personal use. You don't need a license, and you don't have to put a serial number on it, though you're not allowed to make certain highly regulated types of guns without government approval.

The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives reported that one of these kits could be built into a fully functioning gun in 21 minutes, and that an agent had made a fully functioning gun from another in three hours. The agency contended that this made the kits "firearms" under the law (and also "handguns" to boot), in which case it would be illegal for a business to sell them without background checks and the like.

back gorund check required for something that is not a firearm ... that slope is slippery

Noziroh, making a bolt together 80% AR receiver, was told by the ATF that they are no longer doing any determinations on 80% receivers despite it being like a year since he sent them a sample. Sounds like business as usual, "its legal, except we will delay indefinitely so basically the same thing as illegal"

Now where did I put my guillotine?

Its illegal in Hawaii now to have any tool that can be readily used to finish an 80% receiver. So I guess that means my drill press is an assault drill press now. We slid all the way down the slope.

Now it's a race against time!

Yup I remember when President Trump who supported the 94' Clinton assault weapon ban. He created the best blue print to bypass congress and constitution because he's never cared for that it gets in his way. He literally banned a piece of plastic and classified it the same as a machine gun. Now Biden can reclassify semi autos or what ever thanks to New York City liberal elite Donnie Trump. The anti gun abortion loving liberal he's always been.

Considering. If they pass legislation to amend the 68 GCA I'm sure his EO will pass legal muster at that point. Otherwise good luck. He could get the ATF to call 80% receivers firearms as that has never been a written in law thing anyway. Remember when you had to tap the stock threads yourself? Ugh.

Finally, someone who sees that Trojan Horse for the poseur he is. Watch what the man does, not what he says. I only voted for him as the lesser of two evils, but my strategy has been backfiring. When RINOs are in power, there is no push back against gun control because the snake oil salesmen keep assuring us they are against gun control while giving us the BOHICA treatment.

I hate the ATF and completely disagreed with Donald Trump when he basically secured the ban on bump stocks; that being said, saying "...thanks to Donald Trump" in regard to Joe Biden's actions is a bit of an overreaction. Joe Biden would be attempting this regardless of whether or not Trump banned bump stocks.

Also, what Trump did, did not in any way set a legal precedent that would allow Joe Biden to literally reclassify actual firearms through Executive Orders. Of course this won't stop him from trying! Nonetheless, it makes no sense to deflect Biden's actions back to Trump.

Elites liberal and conservative want gun control because they don't want an armed society. Liberals spend millions to get gun control and conservatives don't spend unless it's about taxes or screwing over the working class.

How much did Biden get accomplished between 2008-2010 when liberals had full control? Did he use any ex's give action to reclassify guns without congress 2010-2016? Nope
