Gifting AR15 stripper lower

View · by **SabetaZH** on Fri Mar 12, 2021 2:00 am

My older brother B-day is coming up and I wanted to gift him a AR15 stripped lower. He doesn't own any firearms but can legally own firearms. I understand owning a firearm is a big decisions so I'm letting him decided if he wants to keep it as stripped lower or go on the journey to building his very own firearm. Is there anything we both need to do or can I just gift it directly. I read some where that he will need a permit to purchase even though it's a gift.

You will need to transfer it through an federally licensed firearms dealer per communist lefty unconstitutional soon-to-be-struck-down unconstitutional legislature.

You do know legal advice on the inter webs is only worth what you paid for it.

Today, giving a firearm as a gift to someone who is not prohibited is legal. Tomorrow it will not be. In fact the house just passed this...

Still has to go through the senate, where (thanks to the filibuster) passage is not guaranteed.

Glad to see someone still has faith in them.

I don't want to go into the political debate of what's going to happen in the next month or year because I'm going to gift it to him in the next 2 week so whatever potential law that is still debating would not applied. Anyway thanks for the response, I'll build a list for him so he will have an ideal of what to get and where to go get it.

If it had not passed, how do you know it will not apply?

Possibly because Article 1, Section 9, Clause 3 of the U.S. Constitution specifically prohibits passage of ex post facto laws.

Unfortunately the ban on ex post facto laws is only what someone forces it to be.

Taxes are not unusually increased in violation of this.

I don’t trust the senile fools in DC to do anything right.

If there is no legal prohibition for him to own it, you can just give it to him.

I would still do a bill of sale for your own records even if the purchase price is zero. And have evidence that he is an otherwise eligible purchaser.

I never did that for my kids when i gave them their first .22. Kinda kills Christmas morning if you have to do a 4473 before you can open it.
