AR15 build legality?

Feeling infringed?

Maybe this ... Dad buys stripped lower then gifts it to you using OPLAW form.

unfortunately, op no way around it and you will need to wait to be 21. I also agree with the other members to save money and avoid buying anything Ar related until prices come down. I have build Ar's out of 80's and if you do not have a steady hand or a nice machine you can royally screw them up. This, however, is not a viable option anymore due to Ca registration and the cost towards building one from scratch. I know it may seem like the world is going to hell and you need a tacticool rifle but do not be like me in 2012 and up pay for stuff in a "disaster". To be honest I moved away from semi-automatic's and love shooting old bolts it improves your marksmanship towards making single good shots to get on target.

Is this info from atf website outdated? It says 18 is the federal minimum age for rifle and shotgun.

And the age exemption for hunter license holder in CA didn’t specific anything about the action of the rifle, as far as I could see in the penal code text I quoted above.

OP, I would go get an FSC, because you definitely need one, and it’s good for 5 years) , and talk to the store where you take the FSC to confirm if they will transfer a stripped lower you buy online.

I think California made it so you have to be 21

A recevier is not a Title 1 Rifle or a Title 1 Shotgun, so the minimum age to acquire under Federal laws is 21.

CA laws prohibits a CA FFL dealer from transferring a firearm to a person under the age of 21. [PC 27510]
^An exemption to this if the person age 18-20 has a valid CA hunting license and the firearm is not a semi-auto centerfire rifle or a handgun. [PC 27510(b)(1)]
