Please, brothers - discuss... https://gatdaily.com/the-protection-of-lawful-commerce-in-arms-act/ By Caleb Giddings January 22, 2021 With Wednesday’s inauguration of President Joe Biden, gun rights activists and firearms enthusiasts alike are rightly concerned about gun control legislation. While those are legitimate concerns, there’s an existing law you may not have heard of, and it’s a law that President Biden favors overturning: The Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act. What is the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act? In layman’s terms, the Act, often referred to as the PLCAA provides the same liability shield to firearms manufacturers and retailers that Ford or a Ford dealer would get. For example: if a person gets drunk, hops in their Ford Mustang and kills someone, Ford isn’t liable for that because the drunk person was committing a crime and using their product incorrectly/illegally. Up until 2005, gun companies didn’t have that sort of protection. When PLCAA passed in 2005, it provided a legal shield for manufacturers and retailers against lawsuits stemming from criminal or negligent use of their products. How it works The PLCAA doesn’t stop people from suing gun companies. Let’s construct a fictional narrative to explain this. Let’s say there’s a mass shooting, and the shooter uses a BlastoMatic 9000. The families of the victims get together and sue BlastoMatic. BlastoMatic’s lawyers file a motion to have the suit dismissed because of the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act. A judge then decides if PLCAA applies in this instance, and rules accordingly. There have been lawsuits tossed because of PLCAA, notably in 2010 and 2012; however other suits have been allowed to continue. The Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act is specifically designed to protect manufacturers and dealers from civil liability actions stemming from criminal or unlawful misuse of their products. “Criminal or unlawful misuse” is the key phrase, because as you’ll see, not all uses of firearms or ammunition are covered. What’s not covered Specifically not covered in PLCAA is negligence or criminal acts on the part of the firearms industry company. For example, in 2016 a gun store in Missouri settled a lawsuit for $2.2 Million dollars because they had sold a gun to a woman with a mental disorder. The judge ruled that PLCAA didn’t apply because the store should not have made the sale. This is referred to as “negligent entrustment,” and occurs when an industry company sells or transfers guns or ammo to someone that they clearly shouldn’t. Manufacturers and dealers can be held liable if they commit negligent entrustment, or if they commit negligence per se. Why it matters You may be thinking “why should I care about this law? I’m not an FFL, I’m not a manufacturer or a retailer.” You’re right, you’re not. However, the whole reason that NRA and NSSF lobbied for this law was because the firearms industry was being targeted by frivolous lawsuits funded by the deep pockets of gun grabbers. The policy goal of these lawsuits was to cause “death by a thousand cuts” according to then HUD Secretary, now Governor of New York Andrew Cuomo. If you can’t get gun laws passed in Congress, just sue them until it’s prohibitive to do business. Joe Biden and you President Biden has repeatedly stated he’s in favor of repealing PLCAA, and now he has the means to do that. It will be a tough road, since the law passed with broad bipartisan support in 2005. But the political landscape has changed a lot since then, and then Senator Biden was one of the 19 votes against the bill. Fortunately, PLCAA can only be repealed by an act of Congress, or the Supreme Court overturning it. Be on guard We’re writing this article specifically because PLCAA isn’t a well-known law, and a repeal would be disastrous to our community. But because it’s not a well-known or well understood law, an attempted repeal won’t get people writing angry letters to their Representatives and Senators. So if you see this, share it. Educate your friends. Get them ready to write those angry letters.

I'm okay with pants, for that one... ❤️

If it goes - you'll have to extract the gun oil from my skin...

Trigger, shot glasses, and gun oil, brother... I can rub myself down with the gun oil, travel and drink out of the shot glasses, and show up schmammered at your door with the trigger... We can wash the shot glasses out...

GREAT news, man! I love it! I'm the gas-port-diameter whisperer...

Regular old AR15 Rifle Recoil System will be perfect in that gun.

They don't need to be deleted - not at all. Just start a separate thread on the issues that YOU are having, and don't high-jack this guy's thread with the problems in your gun. Let's solve THIS GUY'S gun issue - he's here, and responding with details that we ask. This thread isn't about YOUR gun issue - just his... I'm "interrupting" right here, so other people don't get in here and start diagnosing YOUR gun issues... Just start a thread on your own gun issues...

@billymagg - he stated it clearly, earlier...

Hey @billymagg - start posting the problems that YOU are having, in a completely different thread than this guy's thread. Let's not muddy the waters here. This guy is here, with a problem - and it's not your problem. Put your problem in a new thread that you make, and just spill your beans - there. That just makes sense. Right?...

Let me know what he plans for a barrel and barrel length, and I'll provide the recommendation on the recoil system, based on that stuff.

Been workin' with them for awhile - you just gave me the edge to put my "proof" in there. You provided the "angle of the dangle" and I seized the opportunity...

OH MY GOD!!! THAT'S JESSICA RABBIT!!! You bringing her WITH YOU on the next round, brother?!!?

Bet they drilled that gas port diameter UP...

Since you're new, and this is your first post - check out THIS section... There's a ton of information for you in here: https://forum.308ar.com/forum/65-308-ar-what-you-need-to-know/

I hope they send me my cut, like they promised...

I bent one, and so did a buddy. We're not exactly running factory ammo, either. That's why I switched everything over to the solid pins. The cotter pins are spares in the box, in case I break a solid pin, and am waiting for another to come in.

HAHA!!! That's Whistlin'Diesel, right there. He bought that Hellcat just to destroy it. Check him out on YT...

Indeed, my good man. There's some force when that thing opens up. Great score, brother!

Common rifle buffer for .308ARs, but the receiver extension depth is about an inch TOO deep. Internal depth for a rifle receiver extension should be 9 11/16". Please re-verify that number, and make sure it's internal depth, and not overall length... The earlier mention of the spring is correct - wrong one. Armalite EA1095 spring will be the one to use, and solve that issue quickly. BCG weight... BCG weight is reciprocating mass, just like buffer weight is. It's weight, sitting there, that had to control the force of the .308 Win cartridge, and cycle a gas operated gun. Normal full-mass .308AR BCGs are around 18.87 ounces (Fulton Armory .308AR chromed BCG is that example). Though yout buffer weight is correct (close to 5.4oz), you have effectively taken 6 ounces out of that reciprocating mass, by using that lightweight 12-ish oz BCG. That's a cycling issue, right there. Now, you can fix this quickly, and keep using the Ti BCG in your gun, but you're gonna need one of the 10oz rifle buffers from Slash (www.heavybuffers.com). That will get that weight back into the reciprocating mass, that you need to be there. This isn't a Race Gun - Standard parts will work fine, at standard "specs" - for lack of a better term. Using "specs" in a sentence with ".308ARs" is an oxymoron... Fancy lightweight parts are just going to complicate the process of reliability, unless you're using this gun to make money on the professional 3-Gun circuit...

Cease Fire! Cease Fire! Cease Fire!!! @DNP @SmoothAction @AZMan... I can't make those dates, for sandtime...

Next trip, according to a phonecall from @AZMan tonight, the dates are 19~21 Feb. Friday to Sunday. Sand Time again. If I can't get the 250R engine done by then, I'll take the LTR. I like jumping that thing WAY MORE BETTER anyway. I'll huck that fucker off anything you guys point at... @DNP - Sand. 19~21 Feb, brother. Grab a bike. @SmoothAction - get a flight, brother... Dan has ALOT of guys coming, I'll wrangle the local guys into this one, too, and get a good big trip out of this one. Replacing all the coolant lines on one guy's rig tomorrow.

That's gonna be sweet, brother - right at the later part of sunset... I happen to have a particular Eskimo Brother-From-Another-Mother, that could probably play this on his guitar... @SmoothAction Next trip, according to a phonecall from @AZMan tonight, the dates are 19~21 Feb.

Your room is always ready, brother. One last drive, right?... You even have a nice stash of ammo here already.

Graf and Sons has Hornady projectiles, .224" diameter, 55gr FMJs. For reloaders. It's 10 cents a piece, 250 for $25.09.

Yep, that's who it was.
