Depends on the state. Even if they can't take it directly, you still have to pay the mortgage, the property tax, the insurance, all the maintenance and upkeep with a new $200,000 bill and probably not having worked for a few months for

Ok I see the final rule does add definitions of "personal collection," so that would cover me. "Occasionally," is not defined, so that's vague. What if I sell 5 at once? What if I sell 1 a week for 5 weeks, is that

You need a metal barrel and bolt to contain the explosion and that's it. FWIW, you can make a single shot shotgun with two metal tubes and a nail. Traceability only matters if you recover the firearm.

I would guess they know it's dying and they're trying to get everything they can out of it while they can. Vendor lock-in is a real risk everyone should be cognizant of.

$200K after taxes and insurance and 401K contributions comes out to around $10K a month. If you live in a low cost state, that's great. If you are stuck in SV, that's not as great. Also, when I interviewed with them out of college
