Legal posture

Everything here is written assuming an experienced-maker / gunsmith audience and is owner-built or owner-modified on the builder's own equipment in compliance with applicable federal and state law. Real-firearm volumes (Build Path C, from-scratch 9×19 in the Mauser C96 deep dive) are documented for the educational and engineering interest of doing the work yourself; jurisdictional rules vary and are the builder's responsibility.
