Underground Regulation: Non Rosterable Frames

[hoffmang]

All,

Just dispatched by courier is this petition to the Office of Administrative Law showing that it is an underground regulation to claim that the frame or receiver of a handgun is an "unsafe handgun" under California Law.

The OAL generally takes about 60 days to determine whether they will review the underground regulation petition or not so stay tuned.

first in a big thread.


Hope this works out in our favor

EDIT: So I take it this puts NeRFs on hold for a long while?

Beautiful. I had never noticed that 12125 wasn't listed in 12001(c) -- that's a brilliant find.

Thats some damn good news!

So was DOJ already notified but refuse to respond?

[sierratangofoxtrotunion]

And so it starts.

That was worth the two week wait. Thanks Gene.

This forum is one of the most amazing things I've ever had the pleasure of being involved with.

So I wonder how many "they're not doing anything about NRFs!!" guys will eat their words now.

Good job, CGF.

Great job!

I wonder if you can clarify one point: Is the preparation and dispatch of this petition the only thing that was delaying the first NeRF transfers, or will y'all still be waiting for the OAL response?

Good job, CGF.

Can you explain in "lay-terms" what this means to us and why it took several months?

When they basically didn't wish to discuss or consider a non hard line with the Capacity to Accept regulation, I took that to mean that waiting for them to respond on the NRF items wouldn't be worth the delay.

I'll post up the PRAR timelines and communications that lead to this filing when I have a chance. They are amusing. Right now I've got some other things to take care of.

How good is the OAL in dealing with such matters? Are they reliable to not have any buddy buddying with the BoF?

We have a CGF board meeting tonight. As you can see we've been a bit preoccupied getting the two petitions together so we'll have that plan though through and announced shortly.

Short answer: dunno at this exact second but will know very soon.

They were very effective to deal with on our first petition. You should have confidence they will handle this fairly.
