Breaking: Injunction on AB 286 80% Receiver Law Won by Polymer80

7/20/2021

Dayton, Nevada's own Polymer80, your favorite 80% handgun lower company, won an injunction today, July 20, against AB 286. AB 286 essentially bans 80% lower receivers in Nevada and is so poorly written even old, unserialized guns are potentially illegal.

From Polymer80's blog post:
​In June, following the enactment of AB 286, Polymer80 took emergency action to stop the enforcement of the new law by challenging its constitutionality.  To this end, Polymer80 initially filed a Verified Complaint coupled with an emergency application for an Order to Show Cause and related motion for a Temporary Restraining Order and Preliminary Injunction to bar enforcement of this new and seriously defective enactment.  Polymer80 was forced to take this extraordinary action because, among many other reasons, AB 286, a hastily and poorly written and passed bill, purports to curtail and criminalize products that are legal to own under federal law.  And, it does so through vague, unintelligible, and sweeping restrictions.  At its core, AB 286 strips lawful citizens of Nevada of their basic, constitutionally protected rights and targets corporations, such as Polymer80, for lawful activities that greatly contribute to the Nevada economy and facilitate and safeguard the rights of Nevadans.

The injunction applies to Sections 3.5 and 6.9 of AB 286 (bill text). This is an injunction in state court.

Section 3.5 prohibits a person from selling, offering to sell or transferring an unfinished frame  or receiver. 

Section 6.9 reads: 9.“Unfinished frame or receiver” means a blank, a casting or a machined body that is intended to be turned into the frame or lower  receiver  of  a  firearm  with  additional machining  and  which has  been  formed  or  machined  to  the  point  at  which  most  of  the major  machining  operations  have  been  completed  to  turn  the blank, casting or machined body into a frame or lower receiver of a firearm even if the fire-control cavity  area  of the blank, casting or machined body is still completely solid and unmachined.
So right now it is legal in Nevada to buy 80% receivers until the injunction is reversed or the case is adjudicated. The criminalization of possession of 80% receivers you already own does not apply until 1/01/2022.
