What's the story with a stock SKS with a fixed 10 round magazine?  I picked up mine prior to Pres. Clinton's 1993 embargo on China, so do I have to register it?

no registration necessary
1) exempt because it is a fixed mag <10 rounds
2) exempt because it is a preban

Anyone register under the abundance of caution?

Yes. Member Pain mistakenly registered two prebans but said they can still be transfered or sold in state.

Why? What abundance of caution? If the firearm is exempt, why register it? What do you gain by registering it?

Because the law continues to not only confound us, but state agencies trying to interpret it, and the deadline is like 6 working days away.

My preban SBR is getting reged. It says "preban SBR" in the unique / identifying marks field.  If they kick it back as such, I'll be ok with that.

But not in this case. The law is very clear. The OP"s stock SKS with a fixed 10 round magazine was purchased prior to 1994. It doesn't have to be registered. It is not an assault weapon under current laws. So again, why register it? What does one gain by doing so?

My SBR already had a lot of little pieces of paper saying that people know I have it.

At this point, I'm just wearing  list what I own on a little placard on my chest in public
