I DO like the idea of "pistol" upper, but if I don't have a "pistol" lower built does that still work?

This also opens the can of "what is a pistol" worms that I also haven't got my head wrapped around...AFAIK the lower was listed as "other" when purchased and a stock was never installed...

I've already pinged NFAGuy on most of this, we'll see what the resident guru thinks.
If you have all the parts you can still build it so you would be in violation. A pistol doesn't have a stock on it and you must use a pistol buffer tube, you can build it as a pistol since it was sold as an other then just convert it to an SBR once you have your stamp.
