Polymer 80 is refusing to comply with a California subpoena demanding customer information related to 80% lower receivers and 'buy build shoot' kits. This action is part of an ongoing legal battle where California seeks to classify these items as firearms, a stance the ATF currently disputes for 80% lowers alone but not for 'readily convertible' kits. The company is committed to protecting customer data, and legal experts are reportedly doubtful that owners of 'buy build shoot' kits face criminal charges, suggesting the ATF may be using fear tactics.
This video discusses the ATF's recent raids on Polymer 80 and other companies selling 'Buy Build Shoot' kits. The ATF is increasingly scrutinizing these kits, considering them firearms due to their potential to be 'readily converted to expel a projectile.' This action creates significant legal ambiguity for manufacturers and consumers regarding what constitutes a firearm and what sales are permissible, potentially impacting the availability of 80% lowers and related components.
