    If I remember correctly, upon the initiation of such a purchase, the Texas AG will seek a declarative judgment in the Federal courts.

    No can will be legally sold without an affirmative decision.

    How will he know such a purchase was initiated?

    There are plenty of places on the interwebz that sell Form 1 kits. As long as only 1 end is drilled, its not illegal. Pretty much a solvent trap, until the other end is drilled.

    You don’t remember correctly. From HB957:

    Sec. 2.054. ATTORNEY GENERAL. On written notification to the attorney general by a United States citizen who resides in this state of the citizen’s intent to manufacture a firearm suppressor to which Section 2.052 applies, the attorney general shall seek a declaratory judgment from a federal district court in this state that Section 2.052 is consistent with the United States Constitution.

    Intent to manufacture is way different that initiation of purchase of product. Form 1 vs Form 4. I’ve considered notifying the AG of my intent to manufacture to force that ethically-challenged POS Paxton to seek the declaratory judgement. I doubt it will be successful and I’m fairly certain intent to manufacture could be done simultaneously with a F1 submission (or even do the F1 first, just to be safe).

    Based on the wording of HB957, all of the raw material has to be sourced in Texas, which I think is going to be hard to make happen. Essentially raw iron ore and raw carbon will need to be mined, coked, cast, machined, finished in Texas.

    Someone has to be the test bed, I guess this guy is willing to be the hamster!

    Texas went out on a limb with this, it's time it gets settled in the courts so the rest of us will know if it's legit or just someone pissing down our backs and telling us it's raining!


    If he did, he’d have the declaratory judgment in hand already. He’d also be selling, not manufacturing so he’d need the appropriate FFL and the purchaser would still be on the hook for a F4.
