    I was talking to a guy today about 10.5 upper that he wants to put on to a lower but he said that it's a NFA weapon. I asked if he were to put it on to a "pistol" lower would it then just be pistol? He nor do I knew the answer. I'm leaning towards to yes if the lower was reported to MSP as a pistol lower not just a lower. I know MSP has made some changes in their thinking on lowers and NFA weapons. Thanks Chris

    If it is a lower classified as "other" and hasnt been configured in any other way first, then it is also legal to build it as a pistol.

    So, is a stripped lower when purchased, classified as "other"? Is that how that works?

    Just make sure to never put a pistol upper on a lower that ever had a rifle upper on it. Aluminum made after 1994 has mimetic poly-alloy RFID technology infused inside it. This allows the lower to remember each upper you attach and report the config to the BATF.









    Ok...maybe not. :D

    Saker 762 is in purgatory. Also, I always build my lowers as pistols first. I document the builds. If I make it into a rifle, it can go back to a pistol in the future. The reverse is not allowed.
