I've asked this question on another site, but am still not sure at this point, so asking here too.
A few years ago i put an Encore frame on lay-a-way. The box contained a new frame and also a set of camo rifle stocks, but no bbl.
After i paid the frame off, i put a rifle bbl. on lay-a-way for it.
I think there's a law that says if they come set up with a rifle bbl. originally, they can't be converted later to a hand gun. If it comes set up with a hand gun bbl. originally, it can be changed to a rifle configuration legally.
The receipt on mine just says frame and camo stocks and the price was the same as for just a frame.
My question is since i bought it as a frame with no bbl., but it did come with the rifle stocks....is it still legal to set it up with pistol stocks and bbl?
Who makes all these crazy, confusing laws anyway? Since this one came with rifle stocks it seems the intent was for it to be a rifle, but the box and receipt just says frame and stocks. There was no slot for a bbl. in the box either, just the frame and stock slots.
The guy running the place now says it's ok, but i'm not sure he knows what he's talking about.
