They dropped this yesterday. Time to submit comments and phone your congress critters to let them know the ATF is wanting to make felons out of us, and make up new laws that is congress' job.

From what I gather, even upper revievers and slides will need to be serialized and must go through a 4473. With this rule change, they could in the future start making individual parts be done the same way.

5-21-2021 update: the comment period is open. Watch video and comment from the description.

I was just about to post this. Can’t believe it took this long to pop up on here.

MrGunsNGear has a good breakdown as always.

Am I reading the proposal correctly that all PMFs have to be serialized? Yet only licensed manufacturers can serialize firearms? So I’d have to be a Type 07 FFL or Class 02 SOT to make my own firearm?
LOL. This rule making proposal is racist… it financially seeks to restrict who can make their own firearms and this will mostly impact minorities.

Unlike the comment period for the proposed M855 ban, or their prior “reconnaissance by fire” with the pistol braces, ATF is now acting on a specific order from their masters to achieve an objective. I think this comment period is going to be merely a formality.

This is just malicious. I can....kinda.....see their point on 80% lowers but will also vociferously argue that anybody willing to take the time to mill their own lower to do wrong will not be deterred even if they were illegal or controlled.

Going after uppers and parts goes against the end users Right to Repair. Let’s say I have a kaboom and my upper dies. Why then should I go through an FFL to fix my own property?

This is a gross overstep and doesn’t stand up on Constitutionality.

Those suffering under the delusion that we are still a Representative Republic need to wake up and smell the coffee, commies are in charge and need us unarmed.
