This past weekend I bought an AR-15 lower from a dealer at the local gunshow. Unfortunately, I paid cash and did not get a receipt. My father witnessed the transaction, although neither him nor myself can remember the name of the dealer. I have a GFL so although I filled out a 4473, they didn't have to call it in. Should I be concerned that if questioned by law enforcement that I cannot produce a proof of purchase?
Also, with the potential that we might see a renewal of the AWB, I'd like to prove that I purchased this receiver before the ban (I will assemble it myself into a rifle before the ban takes effect) although the serial number should help in proving it was manufactured before the ban, what are the steps that other AR-15 kit builders are taking to ensure that they can prove their kit gun was assembled before similar bans took effect? (assuming of course that pre-existing AR-15s are grandfathered in)
