i was just wondering about a scenario where one builds a firearm or in this case a 80% ar lower and its completed,but then later passes on(dies) without leaving it in some kind of legal trust or gun trust?i understand one can build as many firearms for themselves as they want ,but cannot give,sell,transfer in anyway to anyone else.if one then dies,what becomes of these firearms legally?is a firearms trust the right course of action?ive never heard of a case where this has been brought up and would like some input from someone that knows,as this is a federal,not state issue.thanks all!
Where does it say you can’t sell.
Last I remember it said something like you can’t build for the intended purpose of selling…
Maybe something has changed since I last looked.
well,i not sure i want to go there legally until i fully knew that answer,but i one were dead,that wouldnt help in this case without a will or trust i`am sure!
We are talking about an area of the law that the ATF is very unlikely to push, just like 922(r).
I would imagine it’s just like any other firearm. You don’t need a tax stamp to own a lower receiver so there really aren’t any federal laws limiting the transfer. I know in Florida, it would just go directly to whoever is specified in the will.
I’ll answer the question with a question.
Who cares? It doesn’t have a manufacture id nor #.
AFAIC, It doesn’t exist & I’m already dead!
Are we talking about an NFA item, or a retail purchased stripped lower that’s not completed?
Neither, He’s talking about an 80% milled lower. They’re just a block of aluminum until the purchaser finishes the milling and installs a lpk.
