So if he had named his business Casper instead of Ghost, they would have had no reason to think he was selling ghost parts?
I'm a bit fuzzy on this ghost business. What part of the assembly is serialized (if any)?


The lower on an AR is serialized, but if it is only 80% complete, it does not have to have a serial number. You buy the 80% receiver, finish it yourself, and you have a completely legal un-serialized AR. You cannot sell it, or even give it away, if I remember correctly.

Owning a gun--regardless of how it was assembled--should in no way be a crime.
How it is used is the issue.

We have a British Empire/King George III vs. the Colonies situation brewing.
If you don't see that ... good luck to you and yours.

My retard mail carrier just leaves it open and we’re all the time getting we mail.

You can sell it, you just can’t make it with the intentions to sell it, as in for profit to support a livelihood. Also, gifting is legal.

Since a "Ghost Gun" is a made up term by people on the left who know nothing about guns, there is no way UPS can make this a reality.

Ghost gun was totally fictitious press conference conducted by a California dbag elected official. Complete fantasy with no facts, made up terms and scenarios to create a narrative similar to white supremacy and the KKK in recent years.

They don't have the authority to destroy it. They can choose not to ship but that is it.


Wrong question really

If they do destroy it you get the insurance you paid for it if any.

As is in what you agreed to. They always give you the option to insure anything for quite a large sum.

If they lose or destroy your shite they will pay you.

Good luck with that lawsuit for some part that will cost you more to file with no hope.

This is the game.

They will roll with the Feds all the time to act as warrantless executors of package searches. Also in your fine print.

The new gun bill covers the selling of guns for profit with lovely ambiguous wording on what "for profit" is.

I work for UPS, and if you think we have time to go searching through packages for gun parts you are insane.

Buy yer stuff local and pay with cash.

The feds have been tracking this stuff for years and have huge data bases.

Supposed 3 years from now, they manage to steal the elections(again) get a majority in the House & Senate. They bust the filibuster and put 5 radical left-wing tyrants on the Supreme Court which validates their new laws.

You get a letter in the mail from some alphabet agency from hell giving you 90 days to turn in that super-duper, quad-framed laser sighted .442 caliber rifle from Billy's website in Timbuck-Two.

So you say 'From my cold dead hands' eh? No problem says laquisha and sweet triple-gendered blue-hair bruce, we will freeze your bank accounts, if that doesn't work, they will seize your house and put it for auction.
AND if that still is not enough, they will federalize that land that has been in your family for 3 generations...ya know imminent domain. Its for the good of the country.

Critical thinking skills are clearly lacking about this topic.

They totally believe y’all are going through their shite.
