Part 4: How to Register a Short Barrel Rifle (SBR) Done!!

The deed is done. 

On October 1, 2012 the effort began and it was completed on May 23, 2013.

8 months, 23 days. 

Here is the series of events:

• Purchased the AR-15 to be converted to an SBR (10/1/12)
• Purchased the short barrel and upper
• DO NOT ASSEMBLE IT!
• Download and fill out the following forms: 
  
• ATF Form 1 (print 2 sided)
• Certification of Compliance with 18 U.S.C. 922(g)(5)(B)
• Go to CVS for two passport photos
• Go to the County Courthouse and get two fingerprint cards ($10)
• Submit copies for the County Sheriff to sign
• I received signed forms in the mail (about 10 days) (11/1/12)
• Wrote a check to the ATF for $200 
• Sent it all to the ATF (2 copies of Form 1, Compliance Cert, $200 check) (11/2/12)
• Waited.
• Received approved form on May 23, 2013.
• Assembled the SBR.

I made one mistake in this effort. I printed two pages, single sided. It required the form to be a single page, printed on both sides. Otherwise the process was easy but took a long time.

--Next: I need to find the right suppressor for this rig!
