SOTG 918 – AR Lower is NOT a Firearm

by | January 20th, 2020 | 0 comments

More than one sitting judge has declared that the AR lower is not a firearm as defined by law thus dismissing numerous Federal gun cases against people charged with purchasing lower receivers. What do these decisions potentially mean to the American people? 

The Legion of Michael Church Security Team training is back. We have new dates for our exclusive distance learning program. Church security is about far more than just having a gun.

Our SWAT Fuel Warrior of the Week has a question about being armed and prepared when you live in an apartment. What are some of the special considerations that need to be addressed in such a circumstance?

A subtle design feature of the AR-15 rifle has raised a technical legal question that is derailing cases against people who are charged with illegally buying and selling the gun’s parts or building the weapon.

At issue is whether a key piece of one of America’s most popular firearms meets the definition of a gun that prosecutors have long relied on.

For decades, the federal government has treated a mechanism called the lower receiver as the essential piece of the semiautomatic rifle, which has been used in some of the nation’s deadliest mass shootings. Prosecutors regularly bring charges based on that specific part.
