does the 4473 have to be filled out a certain way? or am I thinking of something else? I guess, if I buy a stripped lower, build it into a rifle, then completely disassemble it and reassemble as a pistol, how does anyone know whether it was ever a rifle?

Quote HistoryQuoted: does the 4473 have to be filled out a certain way? Legally no. All lowers without a barreled upper should be transferred as "other" on the 4473, regardless of the intended final build state. "Quoted: I guess, if I buy a stripped lower, build it into a rifle, then completely disassemble it and reassemble as a pistol, how does anyone know whether it was ever a rifle?" Well, posting your intentions to do so on the internet would be an unwise idea... But theoretically, yes, if you were to do it and never took any pictures or told anyone about it, it would be a hard case for the ATF to prove. Remember though, so long as you FIRST build the lower up into a completed pistol, you can then re-configure it into a rifle and back to a pistol at will, so long as you add/remove parts in such and order that you don't ever make an SBR/AOW in the process. |

It could be viewed as unwise to have the components to build the lower as a rifle as well as a pistol without another lower around. You could be considered as having constructive intent to build an SBR since you'd have the tube and stock. Store them separately and use discretion when traveling with them, as in don't put the rifle stock in the case with the pistol.
I love my pistol, the longer KAK sig style tube w/o the sig brace works great. |

If you're not the seller, you don't have to worry about the other stuff. |
