Were I to build a kit from a milled parts kit, what receiver should I use? Can parts kits that were originally on a milled receiver, be adapted to use one of the stamped receivers? |

Were I to build a kit from a milled parts kit, what receiver should I use? Firing line or ORF receivers are the only real option that I know of. I have heard they are very nice but a LOT of $ Can parts kits that were originally on a milled receiver, be adapted to use one of the stamped receivers? Yes. Ive never done this but I have heard its a major pita. Your would have to make your own front & rear trunnions which does not seem like much fun to me. A lot of people have asked me about the Yugo milled kits and I tell them to spen the extra cash and get a stamped. I cant remember what a fireing line receiver goes for but its not cheap. The ORF one below is $600   |

Why not just get a milled reciver from http://www.firinglineoklahoma.com/pages/13/index.htm I just ordered mine today.... The only thing I have heard negative about the firingline recivers is that the engraved eagle on the side bothers some....Nothing eles Lets see...6 C-notes for ORF or same quaility from FL for 289.00 |

Unless it is a Title 2 firearm, everything can go except the serial number. Your state or local laws may differ. For Title 1 (non-NFA firearms), the following is unlawful: 18 USC Sec. 922 It shall be unlawful for any person knowingly to transport, ship, or receive, in interstate or foreign commerce, any firearm which has had the importer's or manufacturer's serial number removed, obliterated, or altered or to possess or receive any firearm which has had the importer's or manufacturer's serial number removed, obliterated, or altered and has, at any time, been shipped or transported in interstate or foreign commerce. For Title 2 (NFA) firearms: 26 USC Sec. 5861 Identification of firearms other than destructive devices Each manufacturer and importer and anyone making a firearm shall identify each firearm, other than a destructive device, manufactured, imported, or made by a serial number which may not be readily removed, obliterated, or altered, the name of the manufacturer, importer, or maker, and such other identification as the Secretary may by regulations prescribe. It shall be unlawful for any person - (g) to obliterate, remove, change, or alter the serial number or other identification of a firearm required by this chapter; or (h) to receive or possess a firearm having the serial number or other identification required by this chapter obliterated, removed, changed, or altered; or (i) to receive or possess a firearm which is not identified by a serial number as required by this chapter Other info: Non-NFA marking requirements NFA marking requirements For non-NFA firearms, it is unlawful to remove the serial number. No prohibition is made on the removal of other required markings. For NFA firearms, not only is the removal of the serial number prohibited, but also the removal of other required markings. |
