After buying my Z5P, I have not shot my 9mm SBR. I would like to sell it to make room in the safe for something else. As far as I know I can do one of the following:
1. Sell as SBR on Form 4 2. Put pistol brace back on and sell as firearm 3. Sell upper and lower seperately 4. Part out the whole thing. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but 2-4 shouldn't require any involvement with the NFA branch correct? What do you think is the best way for me to sell this? Thanks in advance for your input.

At most I'd pull the upper off and sell it. Put the registered lower back in the safe and save it. Then you'll have it when you want to do another one without waiting a year and paying $200.
It sounds like you did it on a Form 1. I can't see someone's previous F1 lower with their info engraved on it as having much value. |

My guess is 2 or 4 would sell faster. Maybe 2 more-so over 4. Depends on the price point.

If you do decide to part it out as a NON-SBR and sell the lower, I think there is a form you are supposed to fill out and and file with the ATF or maybe just a letter instructing them to remove that lower from their database of Registered firearms... Yea, here is something from that Prince Law Firm about it... https://blog.princelaw.com/2009/03/25/batfe-letter-requesting-removal-of-a-sbrsbs-from-the-nfrtr/ |

It was done on a form 1. My trust info is engraved on the bottom of the trigger guard so not very visible. The upper is the easy part, I'm sure it would sell if priced right. The dedicated 9mm lower sitting in the safe will likely never be built into something else. |

You may think that now, but unless you just hit 70 yrs old, plans can change. Save that stripped lower in the corner of your safe. That looks like a nice one to keep. |

Thanks for the all the input gents. I guess you're right. I'm 44 with kids and my oldest daughter shoots with me. She may want it when she's old enough. I'm going to keep the lower and will most likely sell the rest. I appreciate your time.

one reason to give preference to form 1 basic AR lowers that are compatible with 5.56 magazines... unless you just get out of guns altogether, should always find a use for one of those...
Been looking at some pistol mag lowers, but think I will just put on an arm brace. or find a mag block setup for one of my regular SBR lowers. |

Keep the lower, sell the upper & parts
The NFA lower has no value to anyone except for you |

Sell the upper and you can part out everything except the stripped receiver which takes up almost no room.
If down the road you decide to run it as a SBR its there you just have to add the parts back in. Very nice looking 9mm SBR BTW |
