    Not sure if banning guns built from 80% receivers would require an actual change of law, or just a "wave of the hand"??
    But when that does happen, what becomes of the millions (?) of 80% guns??

    80% are not guns, they are objects.

    75% percent complete objects will then become available...

    Not an angle I had thought about.
    The amount of "Wrapping themselves around their own axle" the government does when they refuse to put truly bad people in jail and go after law abiding citizens

    I hope not. I have a few unserialized guns; a couple of old Marlin 22's and a Stevens Bolt action 30-30...

    Guess I need to clarify,
    When they ban un-serialized firearms,, the end product of an 80% build

    The builder will add a serial number. Some Polymer80 dealers offer laser engraving as a service. I bet the old-style pantograph engravers would work, too.

    I think many of us have older rifles and long guns without serial numbers. I dont think the ATF will ever make us serial number them as it has been ok all this many years. They were complete firearms and didnt serial number them back then. I am thinking the newer dated stuff like the 80% handguns and other receivers like AR15 and others will probably have to be engraved with an ID # the way the shit is going.

    I respectfully disagree with your position. If the ATF makes the leap to decide that objects which weren't classified as a "firearm" (i.e. 80% receivers) will need to be serialized, I doubt the fact that hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of guns were sold without a serial number would be left out of the new regulation. It would almost certainly entail the same requirement to register/serialize all those antique firearms.

    Hopefully people disregard the unconstitutional edict and keep punching them out.

    Pay no attention to the fraudulent elections, broken justice system and infringements of rights. None of this has anything to do with you having a gun that they don't know about. Once done with those and crime does not get reduced they will have 1 less item to worry about banning.
