The receiver is the weapon. Everything else is just accessories.

Controling AR-15s and 'Assault Weapons' is a MD (and NY, NJ, CA, MA) thing, IIRC...
Most states don't treat an AR (reciever or otherwise) any different than a dingy old Mosin-Nagant... I'm not sure, but I don't think VA requires you to 'register' anything... |

Quoted: Controling AR-15s and 'Assault Weapons' is a MD (and NY, NJ, CA, MA) thing, IIRC... Most states don't treat an AR (reciever or otherwise) any different than a dingy old Mosin-Nagant... I'm not sure, but I don't think VA requires you to 'register' anything... Thats what I thought. The thought of buying a lower reciever, and no matter what, even if my purpose is to put a 22LR conversion on it for squirrel hunting, it would be registered as an assault rifle makes me sick. yes, I know, the 22lr would not be registered, only the receiver. but....just....shit it pisses me off. So I get to wait a few months until I live in VA to make my next AR. Edited because I can't spell worth a damn. |

Whatever the state laws are, you still have to follow the federal guidelines about what is pre-ban and post-ban.
Otherwise, good luck on the move! |

Once you establish residency, you can start buying firearms 30 days after you acquire an official state ID (driver's license). Make sure to bring supplemental proof that you live in VA, like a utility bill. Then you can buy a lower and walk out with it after passing the instant background check.
