I hear they are going to ban private sales. You would have to go thru a FPCL (Federal Pressure Cooker License) and pass NICS (National Instant Chef Background Check System).
They would first have to prove I bought them with the intentions of selling them. I actually purchased them for personal use but have since changed my mind. I am pretty sure I am grand fathered in. :tiphat:

I have put a call in to Kentucky Fried Chicken. Personally, I don't know what, besides KFC, is cooked in a pressure cooker. I just wanted to have more of them than everyone else. :shock: if we think about it all. Why would anyone actually NEED a pressure cooker?! :mrgreen:

If 16qt is high capacity, I must have the military grade model. Mine is 23qt! :shock:

No doubt. That right there could be trouble. That is why I stuck with the 16qt models. Less paperwork and I stay off the "radar".

KFC uses "Full Auto Pressure Fryers", new production hasn't been legal for civilian purchase since the Sanders Amendment to the Fryer Owners Protection Act of 1986.

Funny when you think of it. Pressure cookers were common items until last week. I actually contacted 2 people carrying them yesterday. I rolled up, they smiled and automatically explained about a queso cook off. I never got out of my car as they were not T's... we joked how an incident makes you look at things differently.

Regarding your pressure cooker, you'll have to remove the grips to make em legal.
