For over 50 years, the definition of a receiver, according to the ATF, is:
An AR-15 upper receiver houses the bolt (BCG), and it has the threads into which a barrel & barrel nut are installed.
The lower receiver houses the firing mechanism, including the hammer.
Neither half of the receiver houses enough of the components to qualify it as a "receiver".
I think much of the issue is they wrote it with "and" rather than "or," which makes the combination of different parts necessary to qualify. Had they used "or", then both halves would likely be labeled receivers.

There's still an open question about an AR-15 receiver set and if the lower even qualifies as a "receiver". A man in CA had the charges of making "ghost guns" dropped because the defense argued the lower receiver alone -- the only part by ATF regulation requiring a serial number -- is not an actual receiver. Can't be convicted of making something that doesn't fit the ATF description of an illegal item. I believe the case was dropped rather than going to final verdict due to the can of worms it was bound to open.

All these years, the AR-15, one of the few firearms with a split receiver, has had its lower receiver incorrectly classified. Since the upper and lower receivers are not the same part, trying to control them as firearms would require a DIFFERENT serial number on both parts. So, for every AR-15 transferred in the US, it would look as if one were buying two firearms. That flies in the face of any measure of logic, since an assembled AR-15 is only a single firearm, not two.
The thing also targets 3D printed gun parts as well as any other part that can be manufactured.

All they had to do was say any partially compete component that would normally have a serial if it was in its complete form and sold is a firearm. If their whole goal was banning 80%s
Uppers fall into the new definition as they house the BCG, firing pin, bolt and "breechblock"
Pistol slides as they house the striker, barrel/breech, mechanism which initiates, continues or completes the firing sequence.
Proposed New Definition of Firearm “Frame or Receiver”
Under the proposed rule, a “frame or receiver” is any externally visible housing or holding structure for one or more fire control components. A “fire control component” is one necessary for the firearm to initiate, complete, or continue the firing sequence, including, but not limited to, any of the following: hammer, bolt, bolt carrier, breechblock, cylinder, trigger mechanism, firing pin, striker, or slide rails.

Happy Easter folks!
On Maui, the "Kings Cathedral Church" was blamed for a covid outbreak.
I do some work with those people, so I emailed them and asked if anybody got the virus really bad.
My contact there just laughed and said NO.
One person got sick so they tested everybody and got back a bunch of positive-asymptomatic results.
DOH recommended NO church services but they basically declined to cooperate with the DOH.
While I am no fan of Russia and Putin, I must say Biden’s comments are quite provocative. All I can say is he better back up his words with some real action and he better do it quickly. He better make a very strong and strategic move in the same vein that Trump did with Russia. Not like what Obama did with Russia. Otherwise we are going to look weak to all of our enemies. And that is worse than just looking bad. What I fear most is that Biden’s comments were made due to his diminished mental faculties. And his decisions along with his actions, if any, could also occur due to his diminished mental faculties. And they could be disastrous for us as a country and could hurt us and possibly our allies badly. He could also start something that we not be able to recover from. So let’s see where this goes. I just hope it doesn’t end badly.
Its been a year, did all thr maskless and gathering in large party people survive covid?

I have taken several OSHA training classes. And I am certified. I am also trained and certified to use my respirator. The information you provided here is correct. All the data about masks (Less than an N95) not working for protection from a virus is well known and documented many years prior to this virus. Of course it was ignored and lied about by the main stream media. So all the ignorant people who listen to the main stream media and our government officials are all running around wearing masks that have already been proven not to provide the protection they think they do.
where did they get the picture of OG?
