Is there a difference between certain AOW's (pen gun, for example) and a zip gun? (Thinking NFA here)
The term “any other weapon” means any weapon or device capable of being concealed on the person from which a shot can be discharged through the energy of an explosive, a pistol or revolver having a barrel with a smooth bore designed or redesigned to fire a fixed shotgun shell, weapons with combination shotgun and rifle barrels 12 inches or more, less than 18 inches in length, from which only a single discharge can be made from either barrel without manual reloading, and shall include any such weapon which may be readily restored to fire. Such term shall not include a pistol or a revolver having a rifled bore, or rifled bores, or weapons designed, made, or intended to be fired from the shoulder and not capable of firing fixed ammunition.
Aren't homebuilt firearms not intended for resale (zip guns) not subject to classification or tax?
Considering some gun manufacturers have little more than a room with some hand tools, lathes, and drill presses, items little different than you find in some garages, what exactly is "factory quality"?Pen guns, etc, are more or less decent factory quality guns.
