You can buy one. No permit required to own it. But if you put it on a lower you have to register it as a short barreled rifle. $200 tax stamp, fingerprints and all that crap just like you would if you bought a machine gun.

it is legally classified as a part or assemblage of parts that does not constitute a firearm. so yes BUT if you mount that 11 1/2 in upper on yore rifle it lagally becomes a pistol subject to regs conserning such.
