To 80% or not to 80%?

[blazedawg87]

Hypothetically, lets say the government forces registration. I will follow the law and register all the firearms that I own.

Unfortunately, there are a number of firearms that I purchased new or with some other kind of traceability that I no longer own. I may get asked by the gov't to give some kind of explanation as to why I didn't register them. My only honest option will be to state that I believe I sold those either on the ODT or I sold them at a gunshow. I won't have any paperwork (no BOS's) to back that up, but that was not required at the time of sale. My vague recollection will be all I have to offer on their whereabouts. They may be able to track down some by going through ODT private message records, but those gun shows are going to be problematic.

If you buy an 80% lower and everything needed to finish it... and then you finish it, you're not allowed to sell it. Ever. If it comes time to register, and we go full tinfoil where the gov't uses their internet tracking to find people that didn't register, I'd expect people that purchased 80% lowers to get some tough to answer questions.

Even the site admins cant recover deleted messages here. Someone was trying to get back messages he accidently deleted and they said there was no way to retrieve them.

If "they" want you bad enough, they will get them.

Welcome to Trader!!!
I think AR's will be much easier and cheaper to build than AK's.

 

[Wudee]

Building an ak requires a sizable investment in tools, jigs etc. Not cost efficient to build just one rifle. I assembled an ar at my kitchen table with a completed lower with $100 worth of tools. Huge difference in time and money building ak’s versus assembling ar’s.

Its never worth it unless you are making a clone lower or clone ak rifle. The whole serial number thing is a meme when you need to order all the jigs with a credit card

It's obvious you are neither new to firearms nor new to this site.
You ain't foolin me.
You won't fool them either.
I'm an old man now...I don't give a **** about who knows what.
Playing cute games is just silly little boy video game strategy.
In the real world it's gonna ugly.

there’s a lot of ways to get stuff incognito without posting about it.
