Dose a legal registered AW have to be featureless ?

[Cyc Wid It]

Nope. You can make it as evil as you like as long as you don't SBR it etc.

My RAW FAL had a Sporter barrel, after I registered it I threaded the barrel for a flash hider.

Threaded barrel isn't considered an evil feature on a rifle anyway.

Threaded barrel isn't considered an evil feature on a rifle anyway.

it was until 2004, when the federal AW ban went into effect. Until then, most RAWs only had a PG, it wasn't until the fed AW ban sunsetted that we could thread the barrel on a PG'ed AW.

since its registerd is it possible to make it a non AW?

[Ed_Hazard]

Once its registerd is it possible to make it a non AW?

If it's not a listed/named lower and you remove all the evil features I think you can but I'm not sure.

As an aside, why? just get a stripped OLL and swap out parts but keep your regitered lower.

This is answered in the FAQ I posted above...

[VetteBill]

Ok, Thanks for the Info

[Cyc Wid It]

Why would you want to make it non-AW except maybe to sell?

[stix213]

Non-RAW would have benefits when transporting. RAWs have to be always transported in a locked case, can only be fired at places with specific permission to do so, and can only be transported to/from the location you would be shooting at (IE no stopping at Safeway on the way home first).

[Cyc Wid It]

But you don't need bullet buttons/featureless, etc.? Depending on the type of AW, I would imagine keeping it as is would be ideal and not too much more of a hassle.

[Omega13device]

De-registering would make selling it less of a hassle. You could sell it in-state, or sell it out of state without going through an AW FFL.

De-registering may or may not create a bullet button/featureless requirement, depending on what type of rifle you're talking about. For an AR, yes. For an M1A, no. Depends on the features.
