I finally got around filling a Form 1 for SBR. Went to my local gun store to get things started with Silencer Shop. The process wasn't hard at all, 50 bucks and two days later I have an approved Form 1. Things sure have changed nowadays.

We need some pictures and details! Now that you have one and all your eforms login info, give doing one yourself a shot. It’s pretty straightforward, the most difficult thing is getting your fingerprint file and passport photo. Let me know if you have any questions I can help you if you run into issues.

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind.

I have a few AR pistols, so I took my seven inch 7.62x39 one and did the Form 1 on it. I built it like 15 years ago and runs great after switching to a 5.56 ejector. The 7.62 one is a little thin and likes to break, maybe because I shoot a lot of steel case?

Waiting on another red dot to show up because that's now on the 10" 50 cal. I like being able to switch out barrel and caliber size's temporary when at the range, best of both worlds.

Everything fits in the case so I can't complain. I will redo the foam on the bottom of the case due to the hatchet job lol.

I'm confused.  Why would the ejector be different?  Are you sure that you don't mean extractor?

You can do them yourself for free FYI.

But if you paid Silencer Shop $50, log into your eforms account and download your .eft file.   You need to use Firefox I believe.

Once you have the .eft file you can file all you want for free.

I did the same thing back in January. I have never ever played the NFA game, and I didn't want to screw it up, so I gladly paid Silencer Shop to handle the paperwork. Didn't take too long and my little PSA pistol became my first ever registered SBR. It's cheap and fun. Congrats, sir!
