[QUOTE="txyaloo, post: 11377835, member: 23362"] NFA is illegal in Texas. It's only a defense to prosecution to have the firearm registered in the NFRTR. Anyone that owns a legal MG, SBR, etc can still take a ride due to ownership. Though I don't know any LE that would actually make that arrest after being presented with the proper federal paperwork. It's not select fire. The gun is an MG and full auto only. Just fyi, I'm an 07/02. This is a recent ATF [I]opinion[/I]. ATF has made many opinions over the years including one saying a piece of string is a machine gun. Yes, many people are following this new opinion, but the law as codified does not have that stipulation for an SBR. Once your F1 or F4 are returned, the firearm is an SBR. While technically, I can take a virgin AR lower and register it as an SBR, the ATF isn't happy about that unless it has a short barrel and stock on it. Once the stock is removed, the firearm is still registered as an SBR. Texas law defines what is a handgun, SBR, MG, etc, but it never defines what is a rifle. It says an SBR is a rifle with a barrel less than 16" in length. It does not say said rifle must have a stock of any sort. As far as I'm aware, there isn't any case law dealing with this either. Also, items are never "stricken" from the NFRTR. Once a serial number is in the NFRTR, there it stays. ATF will make a note that the firearm is no longer in a certain configuration, but the item is never removed. [/QUOTE]
