[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Ok FFLs pussing out, dreams of getting a AR drifting away, what if I found a AR lower...

Posted: 12/31/2005 1:34:15 PM EDT

OK i was trying to buy one at the gun shop or an ffl but that just isn't working. So my question is what if I just found a AR receiver that wasn't on the list, would there be any problem registering it if it became a Assault weapon in the future?

I heard there is a portion where it asks you where you got it from, but then Paul was saying how he built his so I am just wondering if it matters?

could I ~~make up something like~~ I mean say that I got it out of state when I lived there or gun show?

I have lived in WA and GA in the past 3 years for the military.

Why do you seam to think you have to do this illegally? If you gave yourself 5 minutes you could have a lower DROS'd in the state. Don't say you can't. I found a lower advertised with an ffl to transfer just searching around various forums FIVE MINUTES AGO!. You end up in a cell with bubba and nobody will care.

I was just kinda dissapointed to hear that locally the FFL's didn't want to do the transfers, but I think I might have something now.

What region is local for you?

Yes, give us an idea of what YOUR local area is so those of us that have an FFL who will transfer a legal unlisted lower to you can send you in the right direction. You WILL more than likely get help with this. Keep the faith and you shall have your lower.

There are 2 group buys in SoCal, and 1 in NorCal right now, head over to calguns.net and look for them under the 223 legal lower section .

What's the deal with the NorCal buy? We have to go to Oakland? The distance is not a problem really, but doing it in the middle of the week is. Some of us have to work for our money!

Was thinking the same thing... much better turn out would be possible if it were on say Saturday the 14th. My 2 cents.

If you dont want the group buy there are others to be had, I have FFL's in that area who will dros after work, and plenty of other lowers.

PM me if you need help.

Treat this as a once-in-a-lifetime chance and take a sick day, for God's sake! Take a long lunch... ANYTHING to get your lower DROS'd before the DOJ has a chance to update the list.

... and please stop whining. Several CalGuns members have put up their own money (some have eaten shipping costs) and time to try and get as many lowers to as many people as possible. The least you can do is put up with short timetables and fluctuations in price.

Sorry... just tired of the bitching.

Thats why I'm going to think of some B.S. excuse to give my supervisor to leave early.

Just remember you only have to be there on a certian day to start the DROS, you have 20 days after the 10 day waiting period to pick it up.
