So I am 18 and I'm looking to start a lr-308 build (dpms ar-10). I understand that I cannot own an ar-15 lower because they are regulated, but I have recently spoken to MSP Firearms Unit that it is legal for me to own an ar-10 lower because they are not regulated and I would not have to fill out a 77r form. Any input on this? Is this true? And anyone use either the aero m5 set or the v Seven harbinger set?

I believe you would just have to fill out the paperwork just like buying a long gun. Don't believe there is a need for the 77r. Just call a local gun shop and ask them.

21 for Other (frames and receivers)
18 for complete long guns so that could be AR-10 or HBAR AR-15.
They are correct in that you would not need a 77r for the AR10 receiver if you were 21.
See 4473 Section B Question 16 on page 5.

Ah, missed the under 21 part lol.
Z-man, Ar15 Lowers are classified as Lowers that can be used to build a Handgun...Therefore if you live out of state you would probably not be allowed to buy that Lower and since they are classified as a possible Pistol build you being under 21 would Not be allowed to purchase one even if you live in the same state....unless your state allows purchase of a handgun at age 18...In Indiana we have to be 21 yrs old to legally purchase a handgun as well as any AR15 Lower bought separately.. Also the AR15/AR10 Lower in a Serial Numbered Component and Does require that a Form 4473 be filled out...Hope that helps

This is a catch 22 as the AR-15 pistols were how we were able to weaken FSA 2013 along with AK pistols . You would be better off buying a complete AR-15 right now if you have the cash then trying to build one right now. Engage has one for sale for less then 600 cash and carry which is a good deal if you wanted to get an AR right now for the price you would be building one. You could always build the upper right now and get the lower later down the road if your true desire is to actually build one right now.

Yes. the "money" part is the upper. That's the bread and butter of the gun(fire control group aside).

Convenient thread to drop this
This is not precisely on topic as I see that the OP is under 21. But I can confirm that as a person who is over the age of 21, all my large frame AR lower purchases have been cash and carry w/ no need for form 77r.
On topic, I tend to agree with the advice suggesting the OP purchase an entire rifle.

Ok....
Federal law dictates that frames/receivers can only be transferred to somebody that is 21 years of age or older. This has nothing to do with MD laws.
