I went to the gun show yesterday looking for AR lowers. Building ARs is a popular hobby, so I assumed I would be able to find some. I know that lowers are legally considered firearms and that you need a FFL to transfer them, but it's a gun show, so no problem, right?
But I didn't see a single one. I saw uppers aplenty and other AR accessories like stocks and foregrips, but no lowers.
So, what's the deal?
Edit: To flesh out my question. This was at the Richmond, VA show. My question is basically, is there a specific reason no one was selling lower assemblies, or did I just catch a lame gun show, or what?
