2014 DROS of Stripped Lower, Issue Reported and Response

[So Cal Gunner]

Upon DROSing a stripped lower, an issue was noticed in that a firearm type must be selected even for a stripped lower (e.g. bolt action, semi-automatic, carbine). Stripped lowers do not qualify for any of these types.

Upon reporting the issue, the response from DOJ was that a "firearms field representative" said it "would be okay to report the firearm as semi-automatic".

A further reply was sent to DOJ asking how one could certify all responses as true when calling a stripped receiver "semi-automatic". No response as of yet.

This also brings into question the issue of Multiple Purchase Reports. If the sale is listed as "semi-automatic" but there is no centerfire caliber listed, do sales of stripped lowers now qualify for MPRs?

Any and all thoughts appreciated.

Just one more shred of proof of how absurd Cal gun laws are.

I would say status quo for the fed multi purchase and NOT Submit for receivers.

As for the DROS, I wouldn't over think it and just click semiauto.

Somebody reported earlier in another thread that there is now an option in the DROS system for "Receiver Only". If you choose "Yes" for "Receiver Only" does it still ask you for a firearm type?

Yes, it does.
