I am wondering if someone can tell me EXACTLY what and how they filed the forms for a SBR? I checked the ATF website and found the appropriate form, but want to make sure it's correct. I have read that applications are denied for small reasons like sending in the form printed on two pages vs. one etc. and I want to avoid delays. Thanks.

Hey Jeep,
PM Major Malfunction, he is well versed in CLs III and SBR process. He is a dealer (and my best bud from the army). He will be glad to help you out.

short barreled rifle..less then 16"

OK, noob follow up, doesn't that kind of defeat the purpose of a rifle?

 

[Righteous]

works good as a CQB gun

Not trying to be thick, but why is that any better than a .45, or a shotgun, up close?

 

[Righteous]

its not to me, just personal prefrence, only gain is more ammo

Even from a short barrel, 5.56 ballistics are better than pistol caliber. I am looking for manuverability and want to have the range and accuracy of a carbine. Despite it's shorter barrel, still better range and accuracy than a shotgun, that's all. For me, a short barrel carbine is far superior to a shotgun or handgun.

JeepCreep,

I'm a Class 3 dealer - I can walk you through what "right" looks like. It would be WAY easier to do it over the phone, though.

Please go to my website: www.major-malfunction.com and use the contact phone number.

So, are you guys talking about specific models of rifles? Does the SBR apply mainly to so-called "assault" rifles only?

Sbr

Sporting firearms must 26" overall length and rifles must have a 16" barrel, shotguns a 18" barrel.
SBR: Short barreled rifle..barrel under 16"
SBS: Short barreled shotgun..barrel under 18"

Both are regulated under NFA : National Firearms Act and you pay a one time $ 200 transfer tax to own in a legal state.
