But you need a manufacturers license with tons of liability insurance, otherwise you're committing a felony for building a destructive device without a license. I'd rather buy my rifles and not have the ATF breathing down my neck.
Please don't confuse people by claiming to know something you don't know. I'm sorry if this comes off as a personal attack, but you are spouting nonsense.
You need a license to engage in the business of selling or making guns for sale. You don't need a license to make your own personal private posessions. You can make a gun for yourself as long as you are not prohibited from owning a gun and as long as the gun you make is not prohibited (no full auto, no short barrels on shoulder stocked guns or silencers without filing a form 1 first) You can make your own rifle, pistol or shotgun. The term "destructive device" has specific meaning in the context of firearms law, and you can't make one of them without filing a form 1 first. A 22 rolling block is not a "destructive device" A mortar or a grenade is a "destructive device"
I get a little annoyed at the "you need a license to do THAT" line being thrown out when it's not true.
