Franklin Armory Stopped taking deposits

[QuinnBayArea]

He also banned 80% lowers I believe. And the Precursor parts going through an FFL got passed I'm sure.

[Regular guy]

No surprise.

[plumbum]

Your move now, Franklin Armory

Let’s see what you’ve got up your sleeve now!

[SCVlongstroke]

No surprise.

Exactly

[JayEyeTee831]

No surprise.

the way i see it, the title 1 blatantly exposes huge loop holes on ca. gun laws. I think Newsom and co. saw the rifle as an eye sore to their ego's

[sbo80]

however, FA did not invent Title 1 guns. They've always existed, they are a Federally defined item. This is just some DOJ/legislator's pet project to get rid of anything they don't like. As it became more popular recently, that's what made them take more notice is all. Same with the 80%s.

[Moemoe1]

Oof, Just 1 more month in the miserable state....

Folks, let's be real here, we all knew this day was coming. This firearm was designed specifically to evade the CA law. This day was coming, the minute this product was released. The Franklin Armory folks knew this would be a 'short shelf life' product. Which is precisely why thy made such a big effort to market them. They wanted to push as many out the door as they could before this day arrived.

Those that got them while you could be thankful.

This is merely the 'regulatory two step'. Legislators knowing nothing about the market they seek to regulate, write some law. The participants in that market then find some way of evading the specific wording of that legislation to do what they want to do or bring something to market. Repeat ad nauseum

This 'regulatory two step' is by no means unique to the world of firearms either folks. This is true in many, if not most markets/realms of legislating. Stop feelin' all persecuted, that's just how this goes.

Yes, thanks to those like you.

I suppose all of the early 20th century black Americans who were forced to succumb to a stripped-down version of freedom should have also just realized "that's just how it goes"...

Can leftists make any point that isn't a hypocrisy?

Hopefully they just stop - because this attempt got us less than nothing. Now we have all types of additional stupid scenarios where AW will be accidentally created during maintenance, and some of us now have to deal with the headache of real AW problems.

My 1919A4 is now AW, and what do we have to show for it?

You cannot win against a supermajority, so just stop trying. Nothing good is going to come from it.

[Fjold]

At least I have standing.

[SkyHawk]

At least I have standing.

Congrats. That and $5 will get you a coffee.

[Featureless]

I don't like people who call us 'folks'. Reminds me of that arrogant freak o'bama.

You should pick up archery and sell all your guns

Wait they banned 80% lowers? I thought they just moved thr date on precursor parts up from 2025 to 2022
