Constructive possession and Sig
Sig made a muzzle device that featured unenclosed baffles. ATF said it was a suppressor. A judge said to be a suppressor it had to actually suppress. Now, ATF is hitting the constructive possession angle, because you could enclose it.
Well, I have some PVC, wire mesh and some foam. I’m clearly in constructive possession.

I have a shotgun and a hacksaw, and I’m not afraid to use them.

“Constructive possession” needs to be the next magic keyword for “hung jury”

A coke can and a roll of tape can suppress a .22.

Any lawnmower has a good suppressor ( muffler ) on it. Serbs used them to suppress sniper rifles during the Yugo breakup.

I have a shoelace and a wedding ring. Is that a knock I hear at the door?

I hope ATF keeps spooling out constructive possession rope till they hang themselves with it

I don’t know that constructive possession will ever spool out far enough to hang anybody in government, Sovereign Immunity is just too popular among the kitty stompers.
Constructive possession, not to mention all that stuff under your sink and in your garage.

If you can’t possess something constructively, you shouldn’t possess it at all.

Do assorted vegetables in my garden count as “manufacture of banned items”?
How about my bottle cap collection?
That (rarely used)metric tap and die set is SURELY innocent of
“possession” of international tools of “modification”?
(Maybe not, it DID come from China)
