I little while ago, some one posted the idea of building his own belt fed rifle. I was wondering how legal it is to build your own fire arm.

With that I was also wondering about building your own sbs or sbr. If you were two build one, I am guessing that it would still have to be registered. If you built one without using an original receiver, how would it be registered without a serial number, or could it be?

It's legal and it's been done, but personally, I'd be real... careful.

My dad has build 2 1919's.  They work great and he built them when the kits were very inexpensive.  It is semi-auto of course, but I think he had less than $700 in it when he finished them.  If you're mechanically blessed, I'd say go for it!

My question is still what if what I build falls under sbs or sbr classifacation? Does it have to be registered? If so, how? It won't have a serial number if its home made.
