Legal Disclaimer: While we do our best to keep these policies updated in accordance with local, state and federal laws - we recognize these legal changes happen often and many times without much news coverage or public reporting. As a result, you must do your own research to ensure you are closely monitoring the evolving legal landscape and not relying on the information contained on this site to make your decisions.

We are aware that there are some states which only have a partial ban in which some counties and perhaps not the complete state have banned products we manufacture/sell. Nevertheless, in many cases we have taken the more conservative approach to restrict shipping to whole states altogether. We apologize for any inconvenience that this may cause for our customers.

UPDATED 2/1/2023

DUE TO RECENT COURT ACTIONS, 5D TACTICAL AND ITS CUSTOMERS ARE PROTECTED UNDER AN INJUNCTION FROM ENFORCEMENT OF THE RULE.

THIS MEANS WE REWOUND THE CLOCK AND YOU CAN PURCHASE OUR PRODUCTS FREELY (see disclaimer*).

THE COURT ORDER IS NOT PERMANENT, SO GET YOUR ORDER IN BEFORE ITS TOO LATE!

The Department of Justice and Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (BATFE) recently released the final version of their proposed rulemaking 2021R-05 which redefines firearm parts, potentially banning 80 percent lowers and causing supply issues in the firearms industry. The 364 page document was released on April 11th, 2022 and became effective on August 24th, 2022.

Are 80 Lowers Banned?

NO!

You may still purchase lower receivers which are explicitly protected in the language of the rule. Also, due to our recent injunction, all of our polymer frames and AR-15 80 lowers are able to be purchased alongside our jigs as well!

What Can I Do?

The Biden Administration is targeting the firearms industry, including our company, with the 2021R-05 ruling affecting various components and marketing materials. It's crucial for supporters of the 2nd Amendment to reach out to their officials and donate to organizations fighting for their values in D.C.
