| Does anyone know if a SBR is legal in Mississippi and if they are what all has to be done to get the stamp for it? |

You can own any NFA items in Mississippi as long as you go through the proper steps.
You will need to register your lower and pay a $200 tax... Read this to start http://www.ar15.com/forums/t_6_17/257740_Complete_Guide_of_how_to_complete_a_Form_1.html |

If you got the upper before all of your paperwork was approved there could be some problems with intent to build a SBR without having the stamp yet, this is assuming you have a complete rifle lower at your house.
A lot of people will build the lower into a pistol so they can use their future SBR upper till the paperwork comes in (just don't put a foregrip on it). You also shouldn't have a problem if you just had a stripped lower with the upper. But, if you must order the upper now, and don't want to do a pistol build in the meantime, there shouldn't be any legal issues in storing it at a friend's house as long as they did not have any AR rifle lowers. FWIW the last SBR I built I waited until I had my stamp in hand to order the upper. |
Best option is to have your lower ready and have the upper shipped to ffl or whoever you know without a ar that you trust if you find a deal. Not a big deal really, just a pain in the ass. You can also sbr a pistol lower and be gtg with any upper, just order your stock after the paperwork comes in. If on the coast send me a im or email and I will help you if needed.

Don't miss out on a good deal waiting to buy your upper until your stamp comes back.. Just know you cannot assemble it onto a unregistered weapon. Id buy and put someplace away from your lower or take apart. This. Warning, though. Your other guns may feel neglected once you get your first SBR. |

Fixed for ya I havn't fired any of my AR's but once in the last year and a half I've had my SBR, even less since I got the can on it. |
