Hawkeye:
This could be interesting.

Cbmarine:
(f) “Militia Rifles” shall mean the firearms designated in Section 4 that are made in America and suitable for use in self-defense, community defense, defense of States and defense of the Nation."
If you assemble it yourself starting with a stripped lower does that constitute "made" here regardless of where the parts were manufactured?
Adrenolin:
Until its argued and ruled on you're inturpritation is as good as anyone's

"The militia of the United States consists of all able-bodied males at least 17 years of age and, except as provided in section 313 of title 32, under 45 years of age who are, or who have made a declaration of intention to become, citizens of the United States and of female citizens of the United States who are members of the National Guard."
I noticed the "under 45 years of age" quote. I would think that would eliminate a few of us, but The National Guard employs people over 45, so wouldn't that void that limit?

I cannot vouch for the integrity of RedState but they seem to put this militia vs National Guard thing into perspective.
