I've been doing some NFA research for a build and a thought occurred to me. SBR trumps pistol/rifle configuration; meaning any NFA item I make/buy is no longer a pistol or rifle by definition.
If that is true for SBRs, it also applies to AOW's. They are no longer pistols/rifles.
The cost is somewhat prohibitive for SBR's since the tax is $200. But for AOW's the transfer fee is only $5. Meaning I can own any post-ban pistol I want, like an MP5 clone, Sig556 pistol, or GSG-5 pistol for a mere $5 transfer tax and some patience.
This seems too good to be true. Does anyone else have experience going this route?
