Just to clairify a small point on the SBR/AR pistol thing. There are pistols, rifles and other firearms. Any AR lower sold as "other" or "pistol" can be made into an AR pistol, SBR (with appropriate paperwork) or a standard rifle. However, any lower sold as a rifle can not be legally converted or made into a pistol. Once its a rifle, its always a rifle.
I don't want to see anyone get in trouble.
Edit: if you are buying an AR lower to build it as a pistol, all you have to do is ask the FFL to list it on the sales paperwork as "pistol" or "other " and you're fine. If they mark it as rifle or if it is a complete lower sold from the manufacturer as a rifle lower... You can't make it into a pistol.
