2 months agoHold up, can someone elaborate on the “right-to-repair” portion? I thought that even if you made your own suppressor, you still could not service it unless you had a class 7 FFL… are you saying that you CAN repair/service your own suppressor if you build it?
And if so, would the metal thread adapter be the registered part, or the body of the can?
Okay, I’m clear on that portion now, but my question is essentially this: if I submit and get a Form 1 approved and then 3D print/self-manufacture a suppressor, am I (as the maker) allowed to fix it if it breaks?
For instance, if there is a baffle strike, or the thread adapter interface cracks, this post (by mentioning “right-to-repair”) makes it seem as if it’s legally OK to re-print a baffle/endcap/other part, which it is not, unless you are a manufacturer under an FFL AFAIK
A 3D-printed suppressor makes sense from a material cost standpoint, but as I understand it, you cannot legally repair/replace/reprint any part of the suppressor (other than a thread adapter) as a non-FFL without filling out another Form 1
