Has anyone ever registered SBRs in Lancaster??

[bleaman225]

Hello everyone, I am new to the site. I live in Lancaster (Lancaster address, Manor township police jurisdiction). I am putting together a suppressed, short barreled AR (2 stamps). I am interested in speaking with anybody that has gone through the process with our Sheriff's department. I want to see if he will sign off or if I should just save my money because he opposes the idea. This is also my first NFA Form 1 application so any advise will also be greatly appreciated. Thanks to anyone that can help.
**Note** There are no legal reasons to keep me from owning any type of firearm.

You're good to go, both the Lancaster Cty Sherrif will sign and Manor Twp police chief also.

Thank you Gun Bowanna. That is good news to me. Does it matter who I have sign it? The Manor Township C.O.P. would be far more convenient since the station is 2 minutes from my house.

Nah, Makes no difference.

Whichever is the more convienient.

Thanks I am about to hurt my savings account.

Going for a 300 Whisper by any chance?

It would be interesting to see that at Atglen.

What a coincedence, I know you wern't asking me, But, I'm building a .300Whisper Bolt gun.
Savage Action w/Accutrigger, B&C composite stock w/Aluminum bedding block.
16.5" Christensen Arms carbon Fiber barrel threaded for a Suppressor..

It's been over at Sid Goodlings place to get chambered for a few months now ( he's pretty busy, too).

I thought I was patient, but now that you brought it up I gotta start honding the man. It's getting warm out and the hogs 'll be out soon.

Think, Click, PPpffttth, thump. Oh, Yeah


I know, I know, it ain't an SBR but the Whisper reference just brought it up.

I got my 300-221 upper for my AR a week ago and haven't gotten around to assembling ammo for breaking it in yet. I've been through a couple moves and my loading gear is in boxes in various locations in both the garage and basement.

I found the rock chucker and it has a bit of rust on it I need to see to :-(

I've got new redding dies for the 300-221. I can even make my own brass from 221 Fireball or 223 Rem / 5.56 NATO in a pinch. I don't have power equipment for brass production so I ordered brass from one of the people who makes lots of it on Quarterbore.

Anyway, I noticed that a lot of the 300 Whisper folks go with SBRs. I can see why. They look cool. And they are handier with a can on the end than a 16" barrel. But I don't care for the tradeoffs. The big one is the requirement to get permission from the ATF to cross state lines with the thing. And of course paying for a $200 tax stamp to reduce the super sonic capabilities of the barrel is also irksome.

Fudmottin,
I am not going with 300 Whisper, I'm staying with 223. I already bought and received the POF 9.25" upper and I am going to buy a Surefire FA556-212 later today or Wednesday. The Whisper does seem like a badass cartridge though...

I'm headed in there this week to get another form 4 signed. Will they do the fingerprints there too?

I'd like to get everything done at one place this time.
