I think he's referring to the recent Federal Court ruling in VanDerStok v. Garland, vacating the ATF's recent rule change on "80%" (ghost guns) receivers, finding that the ATF has no authority to make rules regarding things that are outside of their statutory purview.

Thank you. Unfortunately, the NYS attorney general issued cease and desist orders to all 80% manufacturers of all kinds and promised prosecution if they shipped to NY. Rather than fight it, they all capitulated. Rule by fiat.

GST-9 frames > Polymer80 frames.

The 80% arms metal jig is also with every penny over the formed plastic jigs. The formed plastic jigs are good to hold the frame in a vise to dremel, cut, sand the frame to finish it.

I just finished my first GST-9. Looking forward to taking it the range later this week.

This definitely goes in the Gun Rights thread... SUPPRESS ALL THE THINGS!

It's been well known what the problem was for decades... the stupid ******* way a single agent would spend days or weeks working on a single application while the rest of the ones what would be damn-near instant sat and waited. They could have made this move DECADES AGO, even when it was still all paper. In any case... watching the industry respond over the coming year should be cool.

It's infuriating that so much waiting was caused ONLY by bureaucratic intransigence. The next step needs to be INSTANT approval for those who have already been through the full process and already have NFA items... the NICS check can be done at the retailer, just like a firearm. Everything else is already on file.

In other good news, Chevron Deference was tossed out by SCOTUS. This puts the leash back on all the bureaucracy, including ATF.
