I'm wanting to purchase a RRA pistol lower from out of state off the web. Can I do this? Since it's not complete, does it still need a single shot sled and BB?

You must have an exemption from the roster for a pistol lower. Only complete single-shot AR type pistols are available to the general public.Originally posted by orangegloWelcome to failtown, population = you. -
Because we have a "safe roster" of pistols, of which there are no AR weapons. To get around that they do the mod.Comment

What web site are you buying from?? Im looking as well..Comment

The only way you can do that is if you are exempt or they will single shot it for you. It is DROS'd as a pistol, so it must meet the requirements of buying a pistol. It doesn't need to say "pistol" on it, it could say donkey raping **** eater on it, it only matters how it is DROS'd.Originally posted by Vinrx7http://www.jsesurplus.com/rrapistollowercomplete.aspx
Seems like a good deal and I figure I'll only have to pay use tax on just the lower and save some money.Comment

Plus I figure I can also save some money by only paying use tax on the lower. God damn state of CA. Blood suckers! LolComment

Soo what if the selling shop installs a single shot and a BB before sending it to the ffl? Can that be done?The only way you can do that is if you are exempt or they will single shot it for you.

I don't think you can do just the lower as the single shot exemption requires a certain length barrel and over all length. If you don't have a barrel, as in a complete lower, I don't know how it could meet the exemption requirements.
You need a complete ar pistol, with single shot fixed mag.

If you want to order a RRA pistol e-mail this guy. davesgunsales@msn.com and tell him Wes Morris sent you. I will make sure he has everything he needs to make your pistol single shot exempt before it gets shipped into CA. You just tell him which model you want and then start waiting. RRA has some pretty long lead times. I have one customer pistol that we have been waiting on for at least two months now, probably closer to 3 or 4 now that I think about it.www.tenpercentfirearms.com was open from 2005 until 2018. I now own Westside Arms.Comment

Thanks for the offer. It's not that I can't get a pistol but more that I wanted to assemble it myself and customize it through the process. Looks like it can't be done.If you want to order a RRA pistol e-mail this guy. davesgunsales@msn.com and tell him Wes Morris sent you.
