27 CFR 478.92 (1) You, as a licensed manufacturer or licensed importer of firearms, must legibly identify each firearm manufactured or imported as follows:
U.S.C. 923(i) Licensed importers and licensed manufacturers shall identify by means of a serial number engraved or cast on the receiver or frame of the weapon, in such manner as the Attorney General shall by regulations prescribe, each firearm imported or manufactured by such importer or manufacturer. Does an individual making lower automatically considered as "license" manufacturer? Or the act of selling make you a "license" manufacturer? Does giving it away to friend and family also be considered "license" manufacturer? Sorry, I am not familiar with how the law is interpret. 26 U.S.C. 5822 No person shall make ... describe the requirement to be a license manufacturer itself if I read it correctly. So it is all about the intention at the time of making similar to how one sell pistol that isn't on the safety list? One may acquires it thru legal allowance to try but could sell it if one doesn't like it later on?

I'm not sure where exactly it says that an unlicensed personal manufacturer has to mark it if they decide to sell it, but that was my impression.
And yes, it has to do with intent at the time. Of course, if you start buying one every month and then deciding you don't like it, that'll start to be a problem.

I have also attempted to search for my exact question in other forums, so I'll throw it out here. If someone can re-direct me, I'd appreciate it.
I relocated out of Cali in 2015, leaving a couple of INCOMPLETE 80 percenters behind with family, and now want to get them out. As they are not technically firearms, can they legally be sent to me here in Idaho? Don't want to cause my family or myself any problems. Just unsure... Anyone?

Registering an AR Pistol built from 80% as an AW?
Hello Calguns legal experts. I have a situation and have been looking for information but I get confusing often contradictory advice from people I ask. I have an AR pistol built from an 80% lower. What is the process for registering it as an AW? All input is highly appreciated.

First mistake...

No, seriously, I have two myself. I have not decided whether to register or fix the magazines.

Is the date 1.1.17 deadline for our BB rifles to be converted to featureless or maglock to be compliant as NON-AW status?

You have until 01/01/2018 to register already-possessed BB rifles as "Assault Weapons" or convert to featureless or convert the rifle using a device that fits the new definition of a non-detachable magazine. |

In order to register it or transfer it, it must be properly engraved/marked. Markings must be to a minimum depth of .003 inch and in a print size no smaller than 1/16 inch. Markings must use Roman letters (A, B, C, etc.) and Arabic numerals (1, 2, 3, etc). Markings must include: 1) Serial Numbers (can not be just a name, must contain numerals) 2) Model 3) Caliber 4) Manufacturer's name 5) City & State where the Manufacturer is located Since you made the receiver, you are the manufacturer. So, your name (first & last) and city/state needs to be engraved on it. If you do not properly mark/engrave the firearm before 07-01-2018, then you must apply to CA DOJ BOF for the required markings for home built firearms. [PC 29180(b)] Starting 01-01-2019, possession of a home built firearm without identifying information will be illegal. [PC 29180(f)] In addition, it will also be illegal to transfer home built firearms, unless it is to surrender them to law enforcement. [PC 29180(d)] Second issue... Wait until 2017, when CA DOJ BOF activates the 2017 assault weapons registration website. |

Non-AW 80%
Just to clarify....
An 80% NOT going to be registered as an aw (a 1911 pattern) needs only to be engraved to ATF specs, correct? No volreg, paperwork, etc.?

How do you submit photos again? Does the online form allow you to upload photos? I take it there are no official guidelines on what needs to be shown in the photos? As in, if I wanted to build a single shot 80 pistol, I guess I should show all the single shot components?

If you read my above post, it outlines how the DOJ asked photos to be formatted. Yes, the online form will accept file uploads (.mpeg, .gif, .jpeg, etc) You should. I submitted my photo with an intact gas system and no single shot sled (even though I built it that way - I was in the process of converting). I did have a dowel in the buffer to render it single shot.

I take it if I need to meet the 12/31/2016 deadline for 2017 AW reg, I need to submit by 12/31/2016? Even if the approval comes after 1/1/2017, I should still be good right so long as its approved since I would have technically owned the gun on 12/31/2016 as proofed by my submission and photos.

I am assuming that what you said in this quote is true, but that is all I have - an assumption. I am sure you know how stupid the DOJ is, so we'll see. But, like I said, I am following that plan, yes.

Well, good luck to us all.
BTW, does anyone know how it worked during SSE days with glock mags? I need to make a 1 shot glock 17 sled for 9mm AR lower. I assume I could use whatever they used for off roster glocks back in 2014. Maybe just stuff some crap into a 10rd glock mag? |

Just watch. The photo requirement in OP's edit is going to turn in to not being allowed to perform maintenance or repairs, as that would constitute altering the "registered configuration."
You can forget something as crazy as adding an accessory, and Lord have mercy should you cerakote it. My own edit: by de facto disallowing repairs, the logic would be that the evil AWs rot away and disappear in time, all under the veneer of a generous registration program that allows us to keep our property.

no, democrat fearmongering is the worst. We fear monger, and a few people buy too many guns and some laws are passed we have to fight in courts.
Democrats fear monger, and 4 police get shot to death in Texas and Louisiana, businesses in poor communities are burned to the ground, and traffic is disrupted in major population centers for weeks on end. |

I'm still curious as to whether I need to VolReg before RAWing. I'd rather not...

You're getting cut and dry answers and honestly, it's not really cut and dry. I see it both ways.
Read this last page, in particular: http://www.calguns.net/calgunforum/s...194330&page=16 I tend to agree with the notion that if you serialize it yourself, you don't need to get a DOJ number or register it in non-AW design. Lots of others disagree and say you need a DOJ number or to have the firearm added to the "centralized list" (I.E., voluntary registration) to avoid needing a DOJ issued number. Read the thread, or at least that last page, in detail and then make your decision as to the level of risk you're willing to accept. |
