[QUOTE="Rod Snell, post: 3079369, member: 796"] Under 18 U.S.C. 922(k) and 26 U.S.C. 5861(g), it is unlawful for any person to possess or receive any firearm which has had the serial number removed, obliterated, or altered. GCA of 1968. Firearms made prior to GCA 1968 are exempt from having a serial number. An individual may manufacture a firearm for personal use only and not put a serial number on it. It gets tricky if you transfer it or especially sell across state lines (Interstate Commerce). As our resident lawyer observed, do you want to have to explain to a jury the gun is really OK under Federal law if the unlikely happens and you get into a court situation? Have you noticed in the news that the fellow who sold handloads to the LV killer is being charged for manufacturing and selling ammunition without a Federal license? How many people violate that law at every gunshow and think nothing of it? [/QUOTE]
