Unless something has changed... And it may have...
But just an FYI. We all, myself included, often say buy an upper. Buy a lower. Put them together.
FYI you are avoiding a tax that way and technically if you ever sell the gun, I believe its supposed to be paid.
We never worry about it since I don't believe in selling guns.
If its changed please correct me. But if not just be aware. These are strange times.
We can keep Larry Root and all his idiotic blabber and user names on here, but we can't get Ralph back..... Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, over....

I doubt I’ll ever sell a complete rifle, or a solid lower.
Never heard that about the tax, but I do know that any gun you manufacture, say turning a Ruger Old Army into a firearm by fitting a cartridge cylinder, isn’t supposed to ever be sold unless you’re a manufacturer. Some in the ATF have opined that the OA is a firearm already because it’s so easily converted. I’ve even seen that from licensed online sellers.
Thanks for the info.
What fresh Hell is this?

What tax would that avoid, other than NFA items?

Pittman-Robertson is what you are avoiding.

Pittman-Robertson is what you are avoiding. Exactly. 11% I believe. Since assembling an upper and lower is child's play, smart people buy them separately - or at least price them out with shipping.
