How to sell a SBR?

[Paletiger13]

I would I go about selling an SBR'd rifle(form1)? Or can I?:confused:

You can sell it. It'll sell on a form 4 through a class 3 dealer. A single $200 tax is due unless the buyer is out of state then its tax stamp X 2

You can sell the gun to an in-state individual or any SOT dealer with one tax stamp, on a form 4. You don't have to go "through" an SOT dealer (to transfer the gun to the dealer would require a tax stamp, plus then an additional tax stamp to transfer to the new buyer, 400 bucks total :mad:), but I would recommend consulting with a "pro" to help you with the paperwork. An out-of-state sale to an individual will require 3 transfers: One tax-stamp form 4 to an in-state dealer, one tax-free form 3 from your dealer to the buyer's dealer, and then one more tax-stamp form 4 to the buyer.
Your best course of action (other than just keeping it and enjoying it :D), would probably be a local form 4 sale, or if you can't find a buyer on your own, finding an SOT to consign it for you (an SOT can keep the gun in the store tax-free, as long as ownership isn't transferred). I'd be happy to help you with this, if you have any other questions just let me know.

Thats just too damn confusing. Probably just keep it.

Send me a PM as to what you have, I might be interested and am very familiar with the transfer process.

SBR Transfer for Dummies:

Option 1:
1. Find a buyer for your SBR (TN resident)
2. Have the buyer initiate a Form 4 transfer for your SBR.
3. When new Form 4 comes to you from ATF in the buyers name, give him the the rifle and the Form 4.


Option 2:
1. Find a good SOT (Dealer capable of handling NFA/"Class III" items
2. Ask him to consign your rifle for you.
3. Receive monies from the sell of the rifle from the FFL/SOT, and return the buyers Form 4 to the dealer once it arrives at your home of record.

Options 3:
1. Find a buyer for your SBR (Not a TN resident)
2. Bring the rifle and your paperwork to your SOT
3. SOT starts transfer paperwork (this costs you 200.00)
4. Once approved, SOT transfers rifle out of state to SOT at the buyers location.
5. Buyer initiates Form 4 (pays 200.00) and receives rifle from the dealer once Form is approved.

Option 4.
1. Keep rifle.
2. Buy ammo.
3. Shoot and enjoy.
4. Repeat as needed.

and, though Joe didn't mention, you can sell it out of the trunk of your car and give all a bad name.

Thus my mystification as to why anyone in his right mind would want an SBR. When you get sick of it, selling it is a nightmare.

[Law of Thirds]

That's why you gotta make sure it's exactly what you want so you'll never get sick of it.

Out of curiosity, how much paperwork would you go through to GIVE a SBR to someone? I'm guessing just as much, just wondering.

[The Rabbi]

I would think "transfer"is transfer, regardless of consideration.

[dcloudy777]

The NFA paperwork is really no big deal... you can go to www.titleii.com (http://www.titleii.com) of have a form 1 or form 4 filled out in about the same time it takes to register for this forum.
Now as for why someone would want an SBR? It's not really important for anyone to know the reason for that other than the buyer, and even he/she doesn't really need to know either. Kinda like revolvers... the technology has been obsolete for 100 years, but yet they sure seem to have a following. :D

And since you put it that way SBR'ing seems like a great idea. Thats a nice looking rifle.

Been kicking around the idea of SBR'ing my 10/22 just because. Its a great little rifle and I am sure I'll never part with it anyway. I bought a silencer for it already and the guys at subgunsdotcom all use a 5" barrel so standard velocity ammo will run subsonic. The Remington subs ar about $4.00 a box and that gets expensive if you shoot as much as I do. It'd be nice to shoot bulk pack ammo quietly.

[jredbryant]

You can always send a form to the ATF and have it removed from the registry and returning thebarrel length to greaterthan 16".If you no longer want the gun just post a WTS ad and see what happens.

[TripleDigitRide]

Instead os selling the rifle, can't you just let someone "borrow" it for a very very very very very very very very very long time? Maybe a "rental" fee?

[Paletiger13]

I would really like to get a SBR'd FN PS90. Ultimate gun for when Zombies run the Earth. Short, Compact, and packs a nice punch to the cranium.:tinfoil: lol
I messaged Joe and am now waiting for a response. I thought a SBR'd PS90, A SIG 229 9mm, and crap load of 5.7 ammo would be worth my SBR'd SL8/G36K conversion w/ lots of extra parts ect.
I also thought about selling just the barrel assym. and putting the SL8 barrel back on. God I hate being poor.

[tngunman]

It's easier to keep it. Nobody will pay extra for a lower with your name on it. You can strip it and sell all the other parts though!

ETA: What is that thing?

[Paletiger13]

This thread is ancient. You would be surprised who would want this. Esp. when everything is H&K:screwy:
