When is the ATF Coming After Your AR Pistol or Lower Receiver?

Washington Gun Law President, William Kirk, discusses recent publications by the ATF to the Federal Register that clearly points to two significant enforcement efforts. First, the ATF will begin redefining “receiver” so that many current untraceable lower receivers would suddenly become regulated by the National Firearms Act. Second, the long-discussed “4 Point System” for reclassifying AR Pistols to short barrel rifles finally has an effective enforcement date. Can the ATF really enforce all these new “interpretations?” Learn more and arm yourself with education today.

  1. Roflmao good luck. How are they going to stop people now printer's can now do lowers , uppers .. and in the case of 22s -9mm. The only thing they can do is serial number the triggers and barrels

  2. The AR15 has been available since 1963 so their reason of updating the receiver definition is BS. Also pistol braces have been legal WITH ATF Approval letters for a decade Now all of a sudden they are a problem? BATFE is there to enforce Law as written and passed by Congress NOT whatever the hell they feel at the moment. They don't have to like it and if change is wanted they have to go through Congress and if the votes aren't there Too Bad. This is sick that they just change a words meaning or change written law and give so called guidelines that really just gives them power to do whatever they want. Even if new guidelines are met they can still over rule even that. We can't let this stand but how do we fight such a corrupt institution? Those that will fight are dispersed too far across US and by the time enough are ready to fight it will be too late

  3. ATF intent? Disarm and criminalize every law abiding gun owning citizen there is in existence even if you own a pellet rifle. Really wonder if they are an American organization or something brought about from Klouse Shwab himself. Going after 80%lowers or something with a pistol grip or a so called high cap mag is absolutely crazy they know it. They just have a hard on screwing citizens over because they got god mode activated with a fake badge and credentials.

  4. Congress ( democrats under Biden word) just gave the ATF a bunch of money last year to enforce this new rule which isn’t a law. Texas must pass a state law to suppress this unlawful act by the ATF and not allow any state officer or politician to follow or help the ATF carry out any unlawful activities in the state of Texas

  5. Biden loophole number 424: lobby the ATF to consider any unvaccinated individual a machine gun…. now all people must be vaccinated or else they are convicted owners of illegal NFA machine guns.
