It’s worth eceryone’s time to read it directly from the source. https://www.atf.gov/rules-and-regulations/docs/undefined/finalrule2022r-17f-questionsandanswerspdf/download

There are people whom I presume are otherwise intelligent asserting that even selling a gun thru an FFL makes you an unlicensed dealer. At least two of these people claim to be lawyers. On barfcom I was accused of being an ATF mole because I pushed back on this interpretation. Sometimes gun...

I’ve never heard of Arken.

Because Mexico is part of North America. If Mexicans can get decent manufacturing jobs then maybe they won’t have to cross the border illegally to become slave labor for unethical American companies.

Maverick is owned by Mossberg. They assemble the guns in Texas. I think some of the parts are made in Mexico, which is better than China or Turkey to me. At least it’s North America.

What's funny is that I could buy a new Maverick and swap the barrel for less than just buying the Mossberg barrel from MGW.

Any leads on an economical source for a Mossberg 500 or Remington 870 barrel with rifle sights?

There‘s a pair of lawyers that post to YouTube as The Armed Attorneys who are perpetuating the idea that you can be charged as a dealer if you sell too many of your own guns through an FFL. I’m at a loss to explain how supposedly informed people can get hit with a pine cone and decide the sky is...

The Uzi is a range toy. The Marlin is a serious hunting rifle capable of dropping any animal on the continent. I own a Marlin 45/70 but I don’t own an Uzi, if that tells you anything.

Exactly. Until I see the guys who rent two tables at every show and sell hundreds of guns a year getting arrested I’m not going to worry about the 2-3 I trade a year.

I’ve seen them on a pretty good sale locally. For those of you that already own one, are you still happy with your purchase? Any long-term issues? I’m not a giant fan of unloading a SA 22 but I can put up with it for a few rounds of plinking if the gun is otherwise good.

If the magazine were stamped with a manufacture date after the ban it could be proven. A tangential discussion, but one I think about sometimes, is the legal status of the 11+ round LEO marked magazines made between 1994-2004. When the AWB expired in 2004 those magazines lost their ‘verboten to...

You wouldn’t, living in Iowa, but there are states where you are forbidden to purchase or posess magazines made after a certain date.

Arfcom and the guntubers are absolutely wound into a tizzy that trading a gun with an FFL makes you an unlicensed dealer because you both don’t have a license. I asked them to send me a link to the story when that arrest happens. They accused me of being an ATF plant. People do love a bit of drama.
