What's a "form 1"?

SBR, AOW, suppressor, etc. No Machine gun, though. |

SBR.
11.5" MRP someday. |

So if I wanted to build my own SBR, I would need to fill out one of these forms and send it to the gubment?
Why? I know the SBR is in a "legal" class outside of the AR, but why do you need to fill out paperwork on it? |

Call them and be nice. Unless there is some problem you will probably have it in a week. Seriously.

Because the barrel is shorter than 16". That classifies it as a Short Barreled Rifle, and thus is needing to be registered with ATF

I forget when my first one went in, probably sometime in April. But I know without a doubt the $200 check cleared my bank within 7 days of being mailed. Imagine that. [/sarcasm] |

I called the DC office this morning, and found out that my reviewer is part of the move from DC to W.Virginia. So my paperwork is in this move and my reviewer is currently in transit, and can't be reached. I called Virginia, and spoke with a guy there who basically told me that she was probably on her way, but maybe on vacation, and that he would try to find it, and to call back next week, and get an update. He was new to the office, and didn't know the lady who was actually doing my paperwork. |

Why does an SBR have to be registered with the ATF? Is it some sort of legal paperwork ramification?
|
|

[#21]
Because the shortest legal length for a rifle barrel is 16 inches. I don't know the specific law, and I am sure that someone does, but to legally own a rifle with a barrel shorter than 16 inches, you have to apply for a Form 1. That means that you have to register a lower as a short barreled rifle, fill out some paperwork, get a local sheriffs authorization, submit your fingerprints, and photo, and then submit that to the ATF, and get federal approval. After that is OK'd, then you can assemble your registered lower, with an upper that has a shorter than 16 inch barrel. Remember, this is in Indiana. Illinois has different laws, and you might not be able to legally register and own an SBR there. |

That is a long time also. If your last name starts with A, B, or C, like mine, then you are probably in the same boat as me. |

well we have lots of discussions on this type of thing over in the M16/Full auto forums, or feel free to IM me. But honestly right now , because of the ATF move to WV, they are goin the full 90-100days no matter which route you went, weather its Individual or LLC.
It was a Form 4 |

I hear ya, brother - I sent in my paperwork in January for my second SBR. First one took about 90 days total. I went "pending" on April 7th (30 days after my check was cashed) and so now it has been over 120 days. Bruce Fucking Shipman is my agent in charge of approval. He's been on vacation all this week and so hasn't returned my calls. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. PS - it seems like the Corporations get theirs done lickety split, but not us civvies. If I get no answer or satisfaction by the end of next week, I'm calling my congressman. |
