I remember an old DPMS catalog said you avoided an 11% excise tax by building yourself.

[consult]

No doubt. Costs about $400+ for the jig and more for tooled to mill them. The you have to buy all the gun parts and assemble it.

And then - nobody knows what you built unless you tell them. That beats filling out forms and waiting for permission to proceed with a sale.

Some pre-1968 firearms do not have serial numbers.

Some pre-1968 firearms do not have serial numbers.

Thank you for mentioning that - some very nice, American factory made firearms DO NOT HAVE SERIAL NUMBERS! My nephew had a beautiful Savage Model 311 12 gauge double (inherited from his dad), with color case hardened frame, walnut furniture, and 28" or 30" barrels, that was manufactured and sold without a serial number. There are probably thousands of similar firearms in LA...

Mines a 16 gauge Harrington and Richardson double barrel.

Don’t even know when it was made.
