That's not true.


It is my understanding that if/when you build a receiver you are required to register it with the ATF. You have to have a federal license to legally manufacture a firearm. It isn't a firearm without a receiver. This is why you can buy parts kits without an FFL that contain everything but the receiver.

from the ATF FAQ:

Must a person who engages in the business of manufacturing and importing firearms have a separate license to cover each type of business?
Yes. A separate license is required to cover each of these types of businesses.
[27 CFR 478.41]

Unless of course you are talking about for your own personal use and not to be sold and a firearm outside the definition of the National Firearms Act.

Please explain where I am wrong. I am happy to be educated.

(ETA: And that's what is driving the 3D printing market - to make guns off the ATF's radar.)
