IMPORTANT UPDATE: The ATF Responds on Solvent Traps
This video provides a critical update on the ATF's stance regarding solvent traps, particularly concerning Diversified Machine products. William Kirk of Washington Gun Law explains that the ATF now considers the mere possession of an unaltered solvent trap illegal, classifying it as a silencer under federal law. Furthermore, even solvent traps converted and registered via ATF Form 1 are being targeted, with the ATF asserting that a Form 4 transfer was required due to Diversified Machine's alleged unlicensed manufacturing of silencer parts. This ruling has significant implications for Washington State residents, potentially leading to gross misdemeanor charges under RCW 9.41.250(1)(c) if these devices are not legally registered.
