#1 I thought going down shooting when they come was the whole point?

It is not the Homemade Firearm, aka "Ghost Gun" that got his A$$ in deep stinky. It was more likely the manufacture of a Full Auto weapon.

ATF’s new rule does not change the definition of a Firearm Frame or Receiver to include 3D printed firearms. Further, Rule 2021R-05 does not prohibit you from building a firearm using an 80% receiver. T

"No, a license is not required to make a firearm solely for personal use. However, a license is required to manufacture firearms for sale or distribution."

#3 I once bought a Contender G2 pistol frame and a separate 18" barrel. The dealer asked me to please take them home and mate them together there, as the local ATF office at the time was likely to -incorrectly - deem the mating together of the two halves to be "unlicensed manufacturing," which he wanted no part of. I told him I couldn't blame him a bit and walked out with my purchases.

It's a sweet shooting varmint pistol in .204 Ruger now.
