I've never read or heard of a constructive intent prosecution re: SBRs, but that doesn't mean it hasn't happened... and it certainly doesn't mean it can't.
Stripped lowers are cheap, lawyers aren't (even when you're married to one  ).Personally, I keep an extra pistol lower on hand for every extra SBR upper I have, and that is where those uppers reside when not on one of my registered SBRs. Cheap insurance IMHO, but YMMV. ETA: I should probably add that I frequently have extra non-NFA/non-pistol lowers lying around as well without an upper, which may be why I view this so cautiously... that, and I just tend to be cautious in general.  |

Sure, you can all the uppers you want. Just make sure you don't have any regular lowers around looking for an upper. |

So then would each upper be taxed?

You can't register extra uppers or bbls, just as you can't register stock assemblies, pistol grips, magazines, disconnectors, or optics. You register the FIREARM as a Title II weapon, not the trigger springs. Make sense? It's the long way of saying "no" |
