I just saw an add by Larry Knesek of Knesek Guns and he has a NIB de-registered LE 6921 with a permanently attached FH for $1,500.00. This is not bad considering I have seen people asking $800.00 - $1,000.00 for just the de-registered lower. Of course he also has 6921 SBRs for $1,300.00 so if your class III transfer dealer does not overcharge for a transfer then the SBR plus tax stamp would just about wash. That is all. Cheers |
He would be better off parting out these guns. As he does it now, he gets $1500 - $100 for a permanet job = $1400 Parting it out he can get $800+ for both the upper and lower = $1600 |
| I am looking into buying one of these de-registered 6921s, but I searched the ATF website and see nothing about being able to de-register a class 3 weapon. If the gun is registered as an SBR and you just pin/weld an extended FS onto the barrel, that doesn't change the status of the registered receiver. Is this possible and legit to do? Thanks for any info. |
Yes, I have done it my self (SWG/OLY SBR). They don't remove it from the registery, they just note that it is now a Title-1 weapon again. You send the ATF a letter stating that SBR S/N xxxxxxx has been restored to its previous configuration and now has a barrel greater than or equal to 16". Attach a copy of your Form 1. I had mine noterized. Wait until they send back a confirmation letter and keep it with your records. Then you can treat it like any other Title-1 weapon - it is no longer an SBR - no more short barrels on it. You lose your $200. Took a year and a call to the division head of the NFA branch to get mine done. This was when the NFA division was based in DC. |
