making your own fire arm

[thegomezclan]

I think you don't have to have a serial number if its for yourself.

BATF requires all firearms to be serialized, even if you complete it yourself. But it can be whatever you ie: WILDCAT

I'm in for at least 2 maybe more. I have a few contacts that do milling work, I will do some checking around as well.

 

[Madpap]

I'm in for two.

Is there somewhere in a regulation or something that states this?

 

[tRidiot]

I'd be in for a few.

Both AR and 1911.

Matching pairs of serials for each? SWEEET. And custom logos? Oh man, I am sooooo there.

Would love to have an AR with a caduceus cut in it!

27 CFR 479.102(a)

27 CFR 479.102(a)

That only applies to NFA weapons (see 479-scope. The part you quoted is under subpart "registration and identification".) It's required for NFA because, well, you can't really register something without a serial now can you?

You are not required to put a serial on a non-NFA home made firearm, but it is encouraged to "aid in investigation in the event of loss or theft" (or in case the thugs decide you have to register it)

 

[Model 70]

I would also have an interest in this project. Does anyone know how to start a poll to show interest in the two different platforms so that we can get a count?

I just realized my last comment the companies I mentioned do not offer 80% blanks. Any one know of companies who do that we can try to get a group buy going?
