Quoted:
An illegal sbr? nope not my cup of tea. I wait till I have stamp in hand before gathering parts. Unlike attaching a complete short barrel AR-15 upper to an AR lower receiver, building an AK SBR requires a significant amount of work from a builder. I'm thinking that possessing the above parts and receiver (without tax stamp) would not be illegal, as there is no quick ability to build it and no clear Constructive Intent. If the owner had the shop tools and equipment to do the build, then I could say maybe say yes. |

If that was the case, thousands of us are sitting on illegal SBRs. But.. that isn't the case. The rules for different guns are different. It's not like having a SBR AR upper with an lower that isn't registered as an SBR. Gotta love the forum NFA/922r/etc police. |

ATF plays by rules that aren't set in stone, I'll keep in the slow lane and let y'all have the fast lane. They have gone on record as saying that if a weapon can be converted to a MG in eight hours or less in a machine shop then it's a MG. (somewhere there's a video of a class 7sot building a MG from scratch in less than 8 hrs to use in the court case) Then there was the shoelace is a MG. And anything with three or more silencer parts is a silencer, even if it makes the report louder. I would either keep OPSEC or wait to collect the parts. |

I didn't see the missing trigger group, I guess that makes it all ok then.

While I don't have the parts, I have been lusting after one over the last 4 years.  But I got a PAP M92 and it's currently waiting to become a rifle since last may.

So going by your interpretation anyone who has a handgun or AK pistol and a spare stock in the same house is in possession of an illegal SBR? |

Wow people. You don't go apply for a tax stamp on a receiver before you have a parts kit. That doesn't even make sense. You have to write the type of firearm you are making on the application form. A pile of Parts isn't illegal... From the ATF website Here Q: May a FFL or an individual legally possess the parts to manufacture an SBR or SBS as long as no firearms are actually assembled? A FFL (Type-7 or Type-10) who pays the Special Occupational Tax (SOT) may possess parts required to assemble NFA firearms. A non-licensee or FFL who has not paid the SOT is required to register any NFA firearm via an ATF Form 1 (5320.1) prior to acquisition of the parts required to assemble such firearm. For the I ain't clicking no link crowd http://www.atf.gov/firearms/faq/national-firearms-act-short-barreled-rifles-shotguns.html Seems pretty clear guidance to me, but your might be ok. It's possible they are confused, they work for the ATF. |
