And some clarifications. This will be for a trust. I have read the FAQ and some threads.
1) It seems that when you make an SBR you must specify a barrel length. So if you want to have multiple uppers with different barrel lengths, they would each need a stamp?
2) I read that multiple calibers may be possible with one stamp. So one could have one SBR lower with multiple uppers? But with #1, you may need to have them all the same barrel length?
3) WRT #2, if you have other AR-15s rifles (lowers or complete rifles) are you OK as long as you do not assemble the SBR upper on one of the non-SBR lowers?
4) Are the surrounding states SBR friendly (specifically PA, WV, and VA)?
5) With all the above, and transport rules, it seems if you are looking at SBR suppressed, that an integral suppression, making the barrel over 16" makes more sense. Correct?
6) WRT #5, can you legally buy a suppressor and install it yourself on a short barrel (pinned and welded) or is it better to just buy the suppressed upper?
Thanks.
