FN SCAR - we can still buy complete uppers in california right?

[000]

So I noticed people talking about the FN Scar being no longer available for sale in California with SB880...but we can buy a complete rifle in another state, pull the upper off it and ship it to a California FFL for transfer and build it on a proprietary or highly modified lower receiver setup in a featureless configuration right?

since the rifle can't be transferred bone stock due to the folding stock, and pistol grip on the Non-serialized lower...the FN SCAR has the serial number on the upper so we can just discard the lower receiver in factory configuration that makes it an assault rifle.

just making it a transfer of a barreled receiver...with no features...

is that correct?

or just use a monster man grip

I wanna see an Ares/FiteLight SCR lower on a SCAR

The upper of the SCAR is the firearm therefore no matter what you do to the lower you are still not modifying the firearm.

Yes....it's as simple as that dros the upper and the rest of the parts send to your home.

Yup, jail the bare upper and have the stock and lower sent to you. Throw a grip fin on it and block the stock while you wait the 10 days.

One caveat though, remember that the stock PWS flash hider on the SCAR is not legal for featureless, but that's also a relatively easy fix.

Good luck getting that thing off! They're installed on there like how Mosin tightens his barrels...

What if I buy a used one and tell the shipper to separate the upper and lower but in the same box...Still an assualt weapon?

There is a lot of recent talk that when uppers and lowers are separated
an AW doesn't exist...

However, does constructive intent exist when shipping separate pieces in the same box when conversion to a legal featureless has yet to occur?

My technique is "bring it to someone who knows what they're doing and give them money."

Ya! Who cares if the scar isn't based on an AR and is short piston operated! I want what I want

^ Yeah, the upper is the part with the serial number. Different than an AR.

The best way to get one into CA is to find someone like audiophil who is out of State. Maybe he will take a SCAR and convert it to featureless and then ship it to your FFL. You'd have to contact him and your FFL to see if its possible. It will cost you an extra few hundred.

The new regulations just got pulled back by the DOJ a couple of days ago so I don't know what the ramifications are of that

Still has to go to a FFL. I think part of the problem you are going to have is finding a California FFL who is comfortable with that kind of transaction.

There is no sneaky way around it.

yeah maybe the best way to do it is to just buy the upper and find an FFL to do it.

or one that will take a complete SCAR and tell them they can just have the lower.
