FTA: The ATF previously gave Polymer80 permission to sell unfinished receivers. But the Buy Build Shoot Kits, which are advertised as having “all the necessary components to build a complete...pistol” weren’t submitted to the agency for approval, according to the application for the search warrant. These kits can be “assembled into fully functional firearms in a matter of minutes,” the warrant application says.
Somebody felt that selling a kit that allowed the customer to construct a fully-functioning gun violated the laws prohibiting gun sales without a background check.
- meowster 6y agoMaybe they're arguing that addition of other parts tipped it from 80% complete to something like 95% complete? I guess it depends on the wording of the law that allows for 80% kits.
- giantg2 6y agoThe 80% number wouldn't change since it's only pertaining to the frame/reciever regardless of the other parts.
