A Message to Our Customers:
ATF Serves Cease & Desist Order to Gun Parts Supplier, JSD SupplyATF came to our offices and warehouse to serve a cease and desist letter, regarding the selling of certain parts.
In an abundance of safety for our staff and customers, we have TEMPORARILY pulled the website until we have clear answers from our legal team. Again, we weren’t asked to take the website down, nor were we “raided”.
We’re still here, making the necessary changes to keep bringing you legal, quality firearm parts you’ve come to expect while working to preserve your Second Amendment freedoms.
The order originated from the ATF’s Philadelphia field office. It stated that JSD Supply could not sell both unfinished frames and firearms parts to the same person no matter if they were purchased at different times. If JSD Supply sold a frame to someone, then the customer comes back to the site and buys a gun part; then, according to the ATF, the company sold the customer a complete firearm without a federal firearms license (FFL) in violation of the Gun Control Act (GCA).
The ATF claims this action is independent of the new rule change that was unveiled last month during a White House Rose Garden ceremony and is due to go into effect this August. The order claimed it has always been Illegal under the GCA to sell parts and frames to the same person even if the transactions were separate. The ATF calls this “structuring.” Many sites sell both parts and frames, including major players in the firearms industry such as Brownells and Midway.
As of Thursday morning, JSD Supply’s website was taken offline until the company received legal advice on how to move forward. JSD Supply has been at the center of attention since NBC News released a hit piece on the company in conjunction with Pennsylvania Attorney General and governor candidate Josh Shapiro.
