Frequently Asked Questions

Why is JSD Supply suing the ATF?

JSD Supply is suing the ATF because the agency issued a cease and desist letter claiming JSD Supply was selling firearms, not just parts, by selling 80% receivers with other components. JSD Supply argues this contradicts previous ATF stances and the Gun Control Act of 1968.

What is the ATF's new stance on 80% receivers?

The ATF has arbitrarily declared that selling an 80% receiver along with other parts constitutes selling a firearm. This is a departure from their long-standing position that 80% receivers are not firearms and are not subject to regulation under the Gun Control Act.

What is the Gun Control Act of 1968 regarding firearms?

The Gun Control Act of 1968 defines a firearm as a weapon that expels a projectile by action of an explosive, or its frame/receiver. Its stated purpose is not to discourage private ownership of firearms by law-abiding citizens for lawful purposes.

What are the concerns about the ATF's policy changes?

Concerns include the ATF implementing secret, unannounced policy changes without congressional action or public guidance. Critics argue this inconsistent enforcement and arbitrary redefinition of terms resembles tactics of totalitarian regimes and oversteps the ATF's authority.
