After the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives unilaterally redefined \u201cmachine gun\u201d last year in order to ban bump stocks (at the behest of the Trump administration), many gun owners understandably gave up on trying to lobby against bureaucratic fiat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But each case is different, and gun owners can\u2019t give up. Remember: the ATF went forward with their bump stock ban, but <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/biden-wants-ban-armor-piercing-rounds-via-executive-fiat\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"call-to-action-submit-your-comment-on-atfs-new-frame-or-receiver-rule-today\" title=\"Call to Action: Submit Your Comment on ATF\u2019s New \u201cFrame or Receiver\u201d Rule Today!\">they backed down<\/a> under the Obama administration after proposing a ban on \u201cgreen tip\u201d armor piercing ammunition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, the ATF has proposed a new rule that threatens Second Amendment rights, and we must once again band together to stop it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Why the Rule is a Threat to All Gun Owners<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Early last month, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/atf-proposes-unclear-new-rule-banning-ghost-guns-redefining-firearms\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"call-to-action-submit-your-comment-on-atfs-new-frame-or-receiver-rule-today\" title=\"Call to Action: Submit Your Comment on ATF\u2019s New \u201cFrame or Receiver\u201d Rule Today!\">ATF proposed a new rule<\/a> to redefine the term \u201cfirearm\u201d under federal law. Much of the media attention focused on how the rule would ban \u201cghost guns,\u201d or 80% receiver kits that allow customers to build firearms at home. The rule does exactly that, and if you care about 80% receiver kits, you don\u2019t need to read any further in this section.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But what if you don\u2019t enjoy building your own un-serialized firearms? Why should you care about the ATF\u2019s new rule?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First, it\u2019s yet another instance of bureaucratic overreach. The people\u2019s representatives in Congress should be the only body allowed to make such a sweeping ruling related to constitutional rights. If you\u2019re concerned about non-elected bureaucrats unilaterally creating laws out of thin air, you should care about this rule.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Second, the rule affects much more than just 80% receiver kits. As I <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/atf-proposes-unclear-new-rule-banning-ghost-guns-redefining-firearms\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"call-to-action-submit-your-comment-on-atfs-new-frame-or-receiver-rule-today\" title=\"Call to Action: Submit Your Comment on ATF\u2019s New \u201cFrame or Receiver\u201d Rule Today!\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">pointed out last month<\/a>, the ATF wrote the rule to give themselves the maximum amount of control over what counts as a \u201cfirearm\u201d (and is subject to strict federal regulation) and what doesn\u2019t.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The rule add this language to the definition of \u201cfirearm\u201d: \u201ca weapon parts kit that is designed to or may readily be assembled, completed, converted, or restored to expel a projectile by the action of an explosive.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What counts as \u201creadily assembled\u201d? The ATF is glad you asked: \u201cA process that is fairly or reasonably efficient, quick, and easy, but not necessarily the most efficient, speedy, or easy process.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What does that mean? It means whatever the ATF director wants it to mean. The rule states that the director will have discretion to judge whether a product is \u201cidentifiable\u201d as a gun by consulting \u201cany available instructions, guides, templates, jigs, equipment, tools, or marketing materials.\u201d Joe Biden\u2019s nominee for ATF director is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/david-chipman-testified-confirmation-hearing\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"call-to-action-submit-your-comment-on-atfs-new-frame-or-receiver-rule-today\" title=\"Call to Action: Submit Your Comment on ATF\u2019s New \u201cFrame or Receiver\u201d Rule Today!\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">an avowed anti-gun activist<\/a>, and you can bet he\u2019d want to expand the definition of \u201cfirearm\u201d to include <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/3d-printer-proves-ridiculousness-of-atfs-new-definition-of-firearm-converts-nerf-gun-into-22lr\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"call-to-action-submit-your-comment-on-atfs-new-frame-or-receiver-rule-today\" title=\"Call to Action: Submit Your Comment on ATF\u2019s New \u201cFrame or Receiver\u201d Rule Today!\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">almost literally anything<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you care about 80% receiver kits, bureaucratic overreach, constantly changing regulations, and empowering the ATF director with near-unlimited authority, you should care about the ATF\u2019s new \u201cframes and receivers\u201d rule.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Why Our Comments Could Make a Difference<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The ATF brass doesn\u2019t care about gun owners or the Second Amendment. That much is obvious. But they\u2019re required by law to consider all valid comments when proposing a new rule, so it\u2019s critical we flood the agency with respectful, effective comments voicing our opposition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ATF has backed down before. The \u201cgreen tip\u201d rule is a great example, but even more recently <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/atf-rescinds-stabilizing-brace-notice\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"call-to-action-submit-your-comment-on-atfs-new-frame-or-receiver-rule-today\" title=\"Call to Action: Submit Your Comment on ATF\u2019s New \u201cFrame or Receiver\u201d Rule Today!\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the agency pulled its \u201carm brace\u201d guidance<\/a> after an overwhelming outcry from the gun industry and gun owners. They just reintroduced an updated version of the rule this week, but it shows that not even the ATF is immune to public backlash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s another reason to comment: good comments can help litigators fight the rule even after it\u2019s been adopted. According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chlpi.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/Why-Public-Comments-Matter-CHLPI-Branded.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"call-to-action-submit-your-comment-on-atfs-new-frame-or-receiver-rule-today\" title=\"Call to Action: Submit Your Comment on ATF\u2019s New \u201cFrame or Receiver\u201d Rule Today!\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Harvard Law School<\/a>, comments are crucial for future litigation: \u201cYour comments help create the administrative record that a federal agency or decision-maker has to consider when finalizing a rule or regulation,\u201d the law school points out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, if government agencies like the ATF fail to adequately consider public comments, a judge may invalidate the rule at a later date. In other words, if they move forward with the rule, they have to show that they\u2019ve adequately addressed the concerns of the public. With each thoughtful, well-articulated comment advancing a new argument against the rule, that becomes more difficult.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Best Practices for Commenting<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>First thing\u2019s first. <em>No profanity<\/em>. As tempting as it may be, profanity is one of the only things that will get your comment immediately disqualified, and the ATF is looking for any reason to discount as many comments as they can.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your comment doesn\u2019t have to be long, but it must forward a logical argument as to why the ATF is wrong to implement this new definition of \u201cfirearm.\u201d As the Firearm Policy Coalition points out, \u201cThe more unique comments and different arguments the ATF receives, the more they will have to read and respond to (this is good)!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are a few examples.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>EFFECTIVE: \u201cAs an executive branch agency, the ATF should not be creating new laws, which is effectively what this rule does. I strongly oppose this rule\u2019s new definition of \u2018firearm.\u2019 Such decisions should be left to the people\u2019s representatives in Congress.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>EFFECTIVE: \u201cThis new definition of \u2018firearm\u2019 is vague, dangerous, and will sow confusion throughout the firearms industry. For example, there\u2019s no way to know what the ATF means by \u2018readily converted.\u2019 If a 3D printer can make simple parts that turn a Nerf gun into a functioning firearm, do all Nerf guns fall under ATF control?\u201d (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/3d-printer-proves-ridiculousness-of-atfs-new-definition-of-firearm-converts-nerf-gun-into-22lr\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"call-to-action-submit-your-comment-on-atfs-new-frame-or-receiver-rule-today\" title=\"Call to Action: Submit Your Comment on ATF\u2019s New \u201cFrame or Receiver\u201d Rule Today!\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Check this out<\/a> if you\u2019re wondering where this example comes from.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>EFFECTIVE: \u201cI\u2019m a law-abiding gun owner, but this new rule will make it impossible for me to know whether any given firearm or product is legal. I don\u2019t want to go to jail just because a product that was legal is suddenly declared illegal based on an arbitrary decision by ATF leadership. I strongly oppose this new rule.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>EFFECTIVE: &#8221; The vast majority of gun owners are law abiding citizens. This new definition could cause many of our law abiding citizens to be criminals. This new rule is ambiguous and gives the ATF too much power in determining what a firearm is. It should be clear and concise like it is right now. Leave the definition to Congress. I oppose this. &#8220;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>NOT EFFECTIVE: \u201cThe ATF is a Commie apparatus doing the bidding of an illegitimate president, the baby-eating Joe Biden! F&#8212; you!&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re an FFL, you should definitely comment. The ATF asks specifically for feedback from licensed dealers related to the \u201cfeasibility\u201d of implementing the new definition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How You Can Comment Right Now<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are a few different <a href=\"https:\/\/www.regulations.gov\/document\/ATF-2021-0001-0001\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"call-to-action-submit-your-comment-on-atfs-new-frame-or-receiver-rule-today\" title=\"Call to Action: Submit Your Comment on ATF\u2019s New \u201cFrame or Receiver\u201d Rule Today!\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ways to comment<\/a>, but if you\u2019re reading this on a phone or computer (which you are), then you should comment via the online portal.
