Aaron in Mohnton Pa Posted May 23, 2022 Report Share Posted May 23, 2022 Wow. I would think that the company that did not properly demil the weapon would also be implicated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryo Posted May 23, 2022 Report Share Posted May 23, 2022 Wouldn't it depend on when the kit was cut? If it was demilled 2 decades ago then it should be legal. Not sure if it would be illegal to sell a one cut kit that was demilled at a time it was legal to cut that method. Of course hard part is to determine when it was cut unless they can get a paper trail via receipts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron in Mohnton Pa Posted May 23, 2022 Report Share Posted May 23, 2022 Here is the DOJ article........ I'd imagine they are trying to determine when and who imported this kit and also who demilled it etc... Lots of variables here it seems.

Ryo Posted May 23, 2022 Report Share Posted May 23, 2022 I just read on weaponsguild.com that someone had a single cut receiver.. And they were contacted to give up the cut receiver part, of course they did. Originally the AFT person told them to give up the whole parts kit but he challenged it and the supervisor said they only need the cut receiver.

johnsonlmg41 Posted May 24, 2022 Report Share Posted May 24, 2022 (edited) As with all internet lore I'd guess is there is a lot more to the story? A single cut receiver is not "readily" restorable, but if you're already bound up on other stuff they're going to try and take it or have you forfeit it. They didn't actually "need" the cut receiver, half would have been sufficient, but it's likely the guy also wasn't all that educated? Course if you have a stack of them at age 28, selling them on the net, it's not a good look? For the guy that has 20 transferables and 3 saw cut kits, it's not likely to be an issue.
