www.thetruthaboutguns.com/2016/07/foghorn/breaking-obama-issues-executive-order-may-drive-gunsmiths-business/Actual EOThe AECA/ITAR require anybody who engages in the business of “manufacturing” a defense article to register with DDTC and pay a registration fee that for new applicants is currently $2,250 per year. These requirements apply, even if the business does not, and does not intend to, export any defense article. Want to thread your barrel? Need to hand made a part for your "antique" gun? Want to make your own wood stock? Want to buff your action to smooth up the trigger pull? All of these things could possibly get you in a bind if you don't pay the fee... He took another law and twisted it in order to abuse the 2cd Amendment and in the process just turned a lot of hobbyist into criminals unless they cough up $2,250....

Hopefully there will be a pushback. Have spoken to 3 local 'smiths. They all are pretty much saying screw 'em. This is one Trump needs to resend if he goes in.... Jimmy |

Did you catch the wording about any modification that enhances operation or improves accuracy?
Step one is to effectively slam the door on after market modifications.
Step two is to go after the manufacturers then add even more taxes.
Step three is a monster ammo tax to toward education and to help victims of gun violence.
"What? We aren't limiting guns....!"
The master of "illegal executive orders" knows that Hillary will be in the White House, so he is paving the way.
It is all going exactly as planned and forecast.

Ordering from Brownells or the like will be interesting if that goes into full swing. If it doesn't shut them down. My read on that is it's an attempt to stop people from building ARs and others.

You won't find an actual EO on the government web site because Opie had the Directorate of Defense Trade Controls add to the wording of an actual law in order to make this happen.... In other words a non elected officials gets to make a new law criminalizing thousands if not hundreds of thousands of regular folks depending on how you break this illegal action down...
The Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC) has reviewed and consolidated policy guidance about whether various activities related to firearms constitute manufacturing for International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR)(22 CFR Parts 120
-130) purposes and require registration with DDTC and payment of a registration fee. DDTC has found that many – but not all -
traditional gunsmithing activities do not constitute manufacturing for ITAR purposes and, therefore, do not require registration with DDTC.
The following guidance is confined to DDTC’s ITAR implementation. You must also comply with all other relevant laws
That wording sounds pretty benevolent until you actually read what they decided is "manufacturing"
This is the same kind of crap so many other government agency's (EPA comes to mind right away) have been doing. They have NO LEGAL AUTHORITY TO CREATE LAWS but we have allowed them to assume that mantle through apathy...
