:facepalm

Legally, besides the owner of the firearm, only an FFL can do work on the serialized part of the gun if the customer is leaving it there. Say I was going to a friends house and he put my AR lower together it’s fine I believe. If I was to drop it off and he was makin money off of it, it’d be illegal.
