Description
I purchased a trigger from rarebreedtriggers.net before learning the trigger has a halt on sales. The website intentionally misleads by saying: This is NOT an NFA item, and can be purchased without any special license. It does not make your AR-15 fully automatic or a machine gun under the NFA. Don’t miss out on this gem!! See UNITED STATES v. RARE BREED TRIGGERS LLC for the court case. If I had known this, I would not have purchased. After the purchase went through (I have transcripts of interacting with the trigger company and the "logistic" company shipping it). The logistic company requested an insurance deposit of $265 and said it would be delivered within a few days after payment. Payment was made. The item never arrived and after contacting the logistic company again, they said they need a $465 warehouse fee. The logistics company calls themselves Blue Waters Logistics (https://bluewaterslogistics.com). A friend had purchased said item and showed me a receipt which then read rarebreedtrigger.com (which is no longer active). It seems this website has cloned the original and is intentionally misleading people who haven't done the legal research (like I didn't).
