A receiver is recorded as "other" when you fill out the form 4473.  Question 16  Its not a rifle or a pistol until you put whatever stock on it. 

Question 16. Type of Firearm(s):
"Other" refers to frames, receivers and other
firearms that are neither handguns nor long guns (rifles or shotguns), such as
firearms having a pistol grip that expel a shotgun shell, or National Firearms Act
(NFA) firearms, including silencers.
If a frame or receiver can only be made into a long gun
(rifle or shotgun)
, it is still
a frame or receiver not a handgun or long gun. However, frames and receivers are
still "firearms" by definition, and subject to the same GCA limitations as any other
firearms. See Section 921(a)(3)(B). Section 922(b)(1) makes it unlawful for a
licensee to sell any firearm other than a shotgun or rifle to any person under the
age of 21. Since a frame or receiver for a firearm, to include one that can only be
made into a long gun, is a "firearm other than a shotgun or rifle," it cannot be
transferred to anyone under the age of 21, nor can these firearms be transferred to
anyone who is not a resident of the State where the transfer is to take place. Also,
note that multiple sales forms are not required for frames or receivers of any
firearms, or pistol grip shotguns, since they are not "pistols or revolvers" under
Section 923(g)(3)(A)

I would also be really careful about this.  He knows how they would treat it if they wanted to be a dick that day.  That dude that was selling "solvent traps" got in trouble by the ATF because those traps had all the parts to make a silencer.  So they got him and possibly  people that bought them with constructive intent.

I did the NFA trust before the July 2016 deadline last year. I used a stripped lower I bought and "transferred" it to the trust for my SBR. I had an additional spare stripped lower, and ordered a pistol kit for it, and then purchased the SBR upper. 

My wait time was 8 months or more. 

What I think is dumb is you could own an AR15 and a pistol version and pop the pins and make your AR an SBR. So to me it makes no sense to even require the tax stamp to begin with. You would have the ability to make an SBR regardless of intent.

It is the possession of a SBR that requires the stamp for the specified serial number.
Folks ain't got a sense of humor no more. They don't laugh they just get sore.

Need to follow the rules. Just hard to determine which set of rules to follow
Now the rules have changed again.

The same is true of many things, it might be stupid, but it is law.
Freedom is something you take.
Respect is something you earn.
Equality is something you whine about not being given.

Oh yeah I went the shorter route because I would like to put a trijicon red dot on it and smack steel inside 100 yards . Don't care about the sound anymore . My neighbors and family have all become gun owners. We've had quite a spike in crime . But it's good to have them involved . We all know each other's cars and watch each other's houses . Like a little community. But truth be told law enforcement would be 15 to 20 mins away unless you got lucky . So yeah you know . Side note , I like the Bible verse trijicon puts on thier optics .

223/5.56?  An adjustable gas block will be very nice.  Most of those barrels in any length are over gassed to ensure reliability.  I used a Odin works block on a 8" 300BLK and like it very much.  There are many to chose from.  They also help a lot when using a suppressor.  It cuts the gas to the face way down.

I honestly didn't notice mine, at 11.5 inches, was that loud compared to a regular length one. I tell you want I do like about it. 30 rounds and I think its more compact than a pistol in outstretched arms. 

I just like to pick it up and shoulder it and stuff. Nice and light.

Sucker 76 it's a 300blk barrel . As stated my original intention was to keep from breaking sound barrier and shooting subs . I will continue with that goal but the hearing protection act was shelved indefinitely due to vegas . Idk what to think but shelving that bill sure seems wrong . It feels like those that want control got a victory .

It's because the media portrays them as silencers, when that is not the case. But then again, they have successfully made everyone who is a sheep think a store bought AR15 is a fully automatic machine gun. You would not believe how many people I have had to educate on that tidbit.
