[ARCHIVED THREAD] - What ATF form for a SBR

Posted: 11/9/2003 4:22:50 PM EDT

Which form do I need from the ATF, and how long does this process usually take from the time I fill it out and send it back to them? Thanks for the input. My plan is to put a Model 1 commando kit on a post ban lower, but first I'd remove the bayo lug, permanently attach a break, and fix the stock in the collapsed position. I want a really short rifle an don't care about the 'evil' features on this one.

Form 1 (5320.1) in duplicate, finger print card in duplicate, and when I asked them to send me the forms, they also sent me two Certificates of Compliance. While the directions do not mention a duplicate CC, might as well send two in. If extra, they'll throw it away, if you need two and send one, it will hold you up quite a bit. Time the last I heard was 8-16 weeks, depending on case load and your luck.

I was looking at the form 1, and it says 'reason for building firearm' or some such, and I was wondering what I should put there. I don't really have any reason to build it except that I want a really short rifle. What should I say, or what did you guys say?

so, i could build my own SBR and register it with the ATF? i see class 3 dealers elling SBR's for $1500 or more in post ban config. these would cost no more than $800 to build. i would rather build my own SBR and register it, but i thought i needed to be a class 2 manufacturer to register SBR's with the ATF.

can someone clarify for me.

thanks
