Not to thread jack but have a random AR question, can we still buy 80% lowers without an FFL? I have been looking for the answer, but cannot find a definitive answer. Thanks

Yes

Yes
If you do build one, make sure you put a makers mark on it so you are complying with federal law.

Cite a source on that if you're going to make that claim.

The requirements for marking are for resale, not manufacturing for personal use.

That regulation appears to be for licensed manufacturers.

When does a receiver need to have markings and/or serial numbers?

Receivers that meet the definition of a “firearm” must have markings, including a serial number. See 27 CFR § 478.92, Firearm manufacturers marking requirements.
Last Reviewed February 6, 2020

This is what makes me think it is required to have the gun marked.
If you make a gun, you are the manufacturer.

You are not a “manufacturer” unless you are marketing them for sale

Also letting someone use your tools to make a firearm is a no no.
Make them your self with your own tools 👌

It seems like there are lots of opinions about interpretation of the rules. You probably should consult a attorney if you are not confident that you understand the laws. I will put a makers mark or serial number on any that I build just to be safe. You all can do whatever you think is best. I apologize for posting in here at all.

You can mark them ,there is nothing wrong with it.

Here is a YouTube
This guy is a lawyer that does YouTube's on gun laws. Skip to about the 5 min mark.Its where I looked for info before I did a 80 lower.

Huh?
Example:
Friend comes to your shop ,uses tools,and your experience to build gun.
Gun is used in a crime
Cop/atf will try to pin u as a manufacturer.
This is just EXAMPLE rarely happens.
But just safer to use your own tools and manufacturer yourself ,which is the 100% legal way.
