I have one SBR now with two different uppers. I am debating whether or not to SBR a second receiver. It would be nice having two rifles but then I would have to get two different BCGs and stocks. I haven't seen the benefit of having the two when I can put that money towards more uppers. Opinions?
Having an NFA items does NOT give ATF any right to search your house. That is a common myth.
The 4473's are kept by the dealer until they go out of business. At that time, they are sent to ATF.
I went ahead and sent off for another sbr lower. I got really tired of swapping everything (upper, BCG, & charging handle) between 3 short uppers. Sold a 16" so I have the BCG and ch problem solved. I'm more of a two is one, one is none type of fella.
Ultimately it's up to you though.
I probably wouldn't own a non SBR AR anymore. $200 added to the build cost. I have an SBR lower with a 16" barrel on it right now. I wanted a 16" upper I guess.
Just for my own curiosity/clarification on the subject of SBR's:
If someone has 2 complete rifles, 1 of which is an SBR, and an extra short barrel upper, could/would that be seen as constructive intent on the non SBR?

No such thing as "constructive intent". What you mean is constructive possession and you would not have anything to worry about in your above scenario as you have a legal use (the SBR lower) for both of your short uppers. It is only a problem if you have a short upper and nothing but a regular rifle lower to put it on. You then have all of the parts to assemble an SBR and no other legal way to assemble them (such as a pistol lower). Henceforth you are in possession of an unregistered SBR.
