A fellow who frequents our LGS was asking for help in building a SBR. It is just your standard 10.5" AR type. I was guiding him through the Form nutroll and provided some fingerprint cards, etc. when he asked if he should put his "new" address down or the current one since he was moving. When I asked where he was moving, he said "Michigan". I was under the impression that, except in cases of C&R type guns, SBRs were not allowed in MI. Anyone here have better information? I know laws change periodically and wanted to check before I tell him to forget it.
I checked the Michigan State Police webpage and it seems the law is still as I understood it. But whoever administers the page doesn't appear to know the law very well as indicated by the following: "Under the Federal Gun Control Act, individuals may only possess those fully-automatic firearms that were lawfully possessed before May 19, 1986. The Attorney General has concluded that a person who has been authorized to possess a fully automatic firearm by the federal Director of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives is deemed licensed and may lawfully possess that firearm in Michigan." http://www.michigan.gov/msp/0,4643,7-123-1591_3503_4654-10953--,00.html So who knows what else they got wrong?
Interesting that SBRs are measured with stocks folded/collapsed.
Anyone know for sure? Anyone need a 10.5" upper if it is correct?
