I think a lot of people don’t realize that in the US we have the federal Gun Control Act of 1968, which gives you the right to manufacture a fire arm. There are still requirements like it must be for personal use, cannot be transferred, must have a serial number, etc. | ||

None of what you said is true. > the federal Gun Control Act of 1968, which gives you the right to manufacture a fire arm There has been a right to manufacture firearms since before the Revolutionary War, and which has remained a right continually since. > it must be for personal use Not necessarily; though you can't conduct business without a federal license, you can, for example, manufacture a firearm to be given as a gift. > cannot be transferred See above. >must have a serial number Not only is that not true, a federal judge struck down the prohibition on defacing serial numbers in United States v.
