Good on you !  I wish you and your suit the best of luck.

[JackDaWack 2,895]

What did the state opinion was prohibited?

Is this an Assualt weapons ban challenge for SBR's

[father-of-three 243]

Is the State of New Jersey not upholding a contract of sale with you?  Are they holding out for a better deal with another company?  I don't  understand the context of the situation.

[WP22 1,558]

I would like to buy a vowel, please.

[Handyman 5,682]

May heaven bless all your efforts, and may you give the government of New Jersey a fonging from which they never recover.

So they are suing because they can't sell SBR's? 

If so I applaud the effort.

The Reformation series of guns are not SBRs.

So there suing over their non-rifled barrels..

You can buy a 7.5" AR-15 with a stock  and it's not classified  as NFA?

Correct. The barrel has straight rifling so it isn’t a rifle or a shotgun.

In April of this year (2019) Franklin Armory started taking orders for NJ residents. I didn’t hear that their certification was denied until this thread.

Thank you for the additional information.

[siderman 1,138]

Give em hell Franklin, and my apologies for the state using my tax dollars to harass you.  Interesting holes in that pic up above lol.

[Greenday 323]

Shame we have to waste tax payer money on shitty politicians and law enforcement doing whatever they say.

[Underdog 1,593]

Surely there should be others.  Why not have a class action law suit against the Republik?   Franklin, reach out to other businesses.

It's not a rifle!

[JohnnyB 4,326]

It's not smooth bore either.  It's rifled, albeit straight rifling!

New Ruling by the ATF on it:

The Franklin Armory Reformation is the first firearm produced and sold by an FFL that ATF has classified as a GCA/SBS. Because GCA/SBS firearms have not previously been available in the marketplace, existing federal firearm regulations do not provide a mechanism to process or approve requests from FFLs for approval to transfer a GCA/SBS to a non-licensee pursuant to section 922 (b)(4) or requests from non-licensees to transport a GCA/SBS pursuant to section 922(a)(4).

ATF is currently developing the procedures and forms to address this new type of firearm. Once promulgated, these new procedures and forms will provide the mechanism necessary for FFL holders and owners of GCA/SBS firearms to request the statutorily required approvals. Until such time, you should be aware of the following:
 

1. An FFL may lawfully sell/transfer a GCA/SBS, such as the Reformation, to the holder of an appropriate FFL (a GCA/SBS cannot be transferred to the holder of a type 06 or type 03 FFL).
    
2. No mechanism currently exists for ATF to authorize a request from an FFL to transfer a GCA/SBS, such as the Reformation, to a non-licensee. Therefore, until ATF is able to promulgate a procedure for processing and approving such requests, an FFL may not lawfully transfer a Reformation configured as a GCA/SBS to a non-licensee.
    
3. No mechanism currently exists for an unlicensed individual who possesses a GCA/SBS, such as the Reformation, to submit a request and receive approval to transport the GCA/SBS across state lines. Therefore, until ATF is able to promulgate a procedure for processing and approving such requests, the possessor or owner of a GCA/SBS, such as the Reformation, may not lawfully transport the firearm across state lines.

Any questions pertaining to this Open Letter may be sent to the Firearms Industry Programs Branch at [email protected] or (202) 648-7190.
