Hey Folks,
I"m brand new so please cut me a little slack if I sound totally out there. I've heard so many things about building, assembling, manufacturing, etc. a SBR that my head is spinning. I have actually quite a few questions but will start with just one, which depending on how it is answered may answer quite a few more. Here Goes;
If I have a stripped lower receiver for a standard AR-15 and I put on this stripped lower a complete PISTOL buffer assembly, test it and see that it functions correctly, and THEN onto this lower I place a complete Commando upper with a 11.5" barrel and it runs as it is supposed to, in semi-auto only mode, do I have a LEGAL AR-15 pistol. Or is it considered an illegal SBR? Keeping in mind that the buffer assembly is pistol and no collabpsable (spelling) stock is attached. Or, do I have to do an ATF Form 1 and register this as a SBR and then I can attach any stock that I choose. I've been told so many different things that I don't know what to do. The only thing I do know is I don't want to go to jail for 10 years and I sure don't have $250000 laying around to give to uncle sugar.
Does this question sort of make sense and can anyone answer, please?
This is my first post and I promise that I will get better. Thanks for letting me aboard.
