I doubt anyone you know built their own firearm. At least what the BATF
classifies as a firearm. In the case of the 1911 Style .45 it is the frame.
In the case of the AR-15 it is the lower receiver. those are the parts with
the serial number on them.

I've assembled several guns but I've never manufactured one. The paperwork
to do so would be ridicules.

what about it? you live in cali where they're funny about that? cause ive
built several of my own guns including a .45, .308 FAL, AR-15 etc.(next
will be a AK) but as long as you do it within the boundaries of state and
federal laws its perfectly legal. -Nick (also a FFL holder)

(Maybe I'm missing the context here) Really? Try building your own .45

just to keep around the house or shoot at the range..
