Frequently Asked Questions

What is the ATF's historical pattern regarding firearm regulations?

The ATF has a history of reclassifying items like AR pistols, SBRs, and auto sears, and using clauses like 'sporting purpose' to ban imports, often without direct congressional approval. This pattern suggests an 'incremental squeeze' on gun rights.

What was the outcome of the Rare Breed FRT legal case?

Rare Breed Triggers, with the National Association for Gun Rights, won a legal battle against the DOJ after the ATF reclassified their Forced Reset Trigger (FRT) as a machine gun. The settlement mandated the return of seized FRTs.

What are potential future tactics the ATF might employ?

The ATF may increasingly use 'constructive intent' to prosecute owners of firearm parts and employ an 'incremental squeeze' by redefining terms, pressuring dealers, and leveraging tragedies to push for new rules.

What technical details are known about the Rare Breed FRT?

The Rare Breed FRT is a 3-position trigger (Safe, Semi, Forced Reset) constructed from 7075-T6 aluminum and 4140 steel. It's designed to drop into mil-spec AR-15 lower receivers and increases the rate of fire.
