If this Rule is adopted and you are using an ID that doesn't show your Birth Sex please remember that you can legally purchase firearms privately without needing a Form 4473 assuming the state you live in didn't pass some dumb fucking law that requires private transfers to be done through an FFL.

If you can't legally buy privately because your State won't let you then it is fairly straightforward to DIY quality firearms; everything from a knock off Glock to an AR-15. Seriously, it's not overly complicated and can often be done in an apartment with basic tools.

If the State you live in has also banned home made / "Ghost Guns" then your options are to try and get your state to change its laws, move to another State, or to do something illegal.

With the practical suggestions out of the way I'm going to get political.

This kind of shit is what happens when we keeping handing the Executive Branch ever more regulatory authority. The President shouldn't have the ability to issue Executive Orders like this nor should the BATFE have the ability to change its own rules like this. 2A Advocates have been mad about both of these for a long time and both Political Parties have leveraged these capabilities to further their agendas. What's worse is that our Congress is filled with spineless opportunists who refuse to reign-in these abuses.

This Trump led fuckery should not be happening however the Biden led fuckery around Pistol Braces shouldn't have happened either and the Obama fuckery around taking 2A rights from Veterans shouldn't have happened. In every single case it's a President using Executive Orders to try and disenfranchise people to further a political agenda while Congress stands around navel gazing.

People need to internalize the fact that that the Government has no place in your Bedroom, Boardroom, Doctors Office, or Gun Cabinet and stop voting for the people who believe otherwise.
