Can you own a short barrel upper, not on a lower, legally.  Say I want a short barrel upper.  do I have to regieter the receiver before I buy the short barrel upper or can I buy the upper and then register the lower later?

thanks

Yes, you could buy one without paperwork.  Not recommended though.   The BATF could see it as "constructive possession" of an NFA firearm.

File the Form 1 for the SBR registration and get the SBR upper once you get the approved Form 1 back.
