Can I build a Pistol with this lower? - 06/10/16
So I bought a new stripped lower from a gun shop the other day. While filling out the paperwork, the ffl dealer guy said that the Virginia State Police told them to fill out the state form as a rifle because the VA state form only has designations for pistols and rifles. No "receiver" designation.
The federal form however has pistol, rifle, receiver, and I believe he said other as well. So he filled out the federal form as Receiver.
He being prior law enforcement told me it was clean and clear to build whatever I want. But upon asking several other gun shops they all said a pistol would be illegal.
So, state form says rifle. Federal form says receiver. Can I build a pistol or not?
Thanks
