If you're 18-20 years old and you are planning on purchasing a stripped receiver, you need to get it from a dealer who is still using the old white forms (some have switched already) and get it transfered to you prior to 11/15.

Is this an internal BATFE change or was it mandated by legislation?

[caver]

Call me ignorant, but I’m surprised that stripped receivers were not already considered a firearm.

[Larry Lucido]

I hear Squantos once received some strippers, around 18-20 years old.

Since a frame or receiver for a firearm to include one that can only be made into a long gun, is a "firearm other than a shotgun or a rifle" it cannot be transferred to anyone under the age of 21.

That would include many hundreds of thousands of our men and women fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan. I assume they don't issue them firearms, stripped or otherwise, to them...........

[CodeToad]

In our State you must be 18 to see a stripper without booze involved and 21 with booze involved so will there be a checkbox for “Booze Served”?

[Myrddin]

I hope this means the T/C Encore and Contender G2 receivers are now considered interchangeable i.e. a receiver originally sold as a rifle can be freely converted to pistol form. Thompson has had to register frames serial numbers as rifle or pistol at the factory. It was Ok to build a rifle from a frame sold as a pistol. Building a pistol from a frame sold as a "rifle" was illegal. That was just plain stupid.

This thread is worthless without pictures.

I was under the impression that one declared the intended build as handgun or longgun at the time of purchase. Wouldn’t that preclude 18-21’s from buying for handguns? They’d be in a world of hurt if they committed fraud on the 4473 and then built a handgun from a longgun receiver. I’m guessing that this is just an incremental step at reducing the number of guns sold, but it doesn’t make much sense unless someone at ATF has a leftist bent and is noticing an uptick in AR lowers being sold to 18-21’s.

Slightly off topic, but does anyone have any comments on Stag AR lowers?

Even more off topic, but encouraging... I heard Mrs. kitchen say to a customer yesterday, "... if he doesn't try to take all our guns..." She's qualified with handguns and a fair rifle shot, but basically could care less about shooting. Looks like this election is bringing a few things to the surface.

I though receivers were all ready considered firearms

Good thing we have a republican in the whitehouse to restrain this unconstitutional agency. /sarcasm
