My searching fu is lacking so I may have missed the answer to the following question in some other post.
For firearms, as long the item is not a prohibited firearm or device you can make and use it as far as the AFT is concerned. ATF also through one of its branches regulates alcohol. Distilled beverages are not illegal per se to possess if they have a tax stamp. You can make non-distilled beverages for your own use, but noway can a individual make distilled spirits even if for his own use with getting approval which includes posting a bond.
So my question. The feds for years have been prohibiting distilled spirits from being made for individual non-commercial use.
Does this set a legal precedent to prohibit people from making their own firearms if the ATF decides to make a ruling of such or the congress decides to pass such a law?
