Frequently Asked Questions

What is ATF Rule 2021-05A about?

ATF Rule 2021-05A is a proposed regulation that seeks to redefine the terms 'frame' and 'receiver' for firearms. This redefinition could significantly impact how firearm components are classified and regulated, potentially leading to stricter controls and serialization requirements for parts kits and individual components.

How could ATF Rule 2021-05A lead to a national handgun roster?

By redefining 'frame' and 'receiver,' the ATF could gain broader authority to regulate firearm components. This expanded control could enable the agency to implement a national handgun roster, requiring all handguns to be approved by the ATF before they can be sold, similar to existing state-level rosters.

What are the implications of California's handgun roster?

California's handgun roster requires firearms to have specific safety features, such as loaded chamber indicators and magazine disconnects. This has drastically reduced the number of handgun models legally available for sale in the state, limiting consumer choice and potentially setting a precedent for a national roster.

What action is USCCA recommending regarding ATF Rule 2021-05A?

The USCCA is urging gun owners to submit comments to the ATF expressing their opposition to Rule 2021-05A. The deadline for public comments was August 19, 2021. This action is presented as a critical opportunity for citizens to protect their Second Amendment rights.
