Gentlemen,
There is one NFA bit of info that I have yet to fully understand, and so I turn to you NFA junkies for the answers once again.
If I were to purchase this 6921 lower receiver shown below, (or ANY other lower receiver, which is already/previously registered as an SBR), HOW does this generally work, and what is DIFFERENT about the transaction, versus buying a standard (NON NFA) lower receiver??? I mean, I have seen Grant on this forum, selling what he referred to as something like "Pre-registered LMT 10.5" Complete SBRs), or something to that affect, but I never understood what was different about the transaction.
Here is the Colt 6921 I was looking at as an example. I am thinking, that based on the high price, it MIGHT have a $200 tax stamp BUILT INTO it's price? More on that below, in my specific questions:

Specific questions I need answered:
1. Is a $200 tax stamp STILL paid by someone, on such lowers? If so, then is the $200 tax stamp just "built into" the price of such lowers?
OR, is a $200 tax stamp never due, since there was no "TRUST", or FORM 4(or whatever number it is) filed????
Yes, you still pay a $200 tax. A "factory" SBR (such as the 6921) is transfered on a Form 4, just like a suppressor or MG. That is how it differs from a non-SBR lower. If the dealer you are purchasing the factory SBR lower/suppressor/MG from is out of state, have the out of state dealer transfer the item to your in state class 3 dealer.
Once the item is at your in state class 3 dealer, you fill out a Form 4 and submit it to the ATF. The item will remain at your in state class 3 dealer until your Form 4 is approved. Once the Form 4 is approved, you go pick up the item from your in state class 3 dealer, and enjoy.
2. Does such a lower already have any NFA/SBR info engraved on it? If not, then must I still put any engraving on it when I receive it myself???
No, and this is why some people prefer buying a "factory" SBR lower. Since the lower is already an NFA item from the factory, the manufacturers name, city, and state are already marked on the lower. Hence, you do not need to add any of your personal info, since you are not the "maker".
This is preferred by some because if you ever decide to sell the lower, your personal/trust info isn't engraved in the lower.
3. What exactly do you refer to this process as? I mean, is this just referred to ask "buying a pre-registered SBR lower"????
I would call it buying a factory SBR.
I'm still searching for threads/info on this subject. Haven't found all these answers yet. Anyone with a link to such a thread would be greatly appreciated.
I'm just looking for any and all info, and differences between purchasing a standard lower and SBRing it, versus buying a lower like the one above, which, for now, I'll refer to as a "pre-registered" SBR lower. (and I may just be dead wrong on that nomenclature, but hey, that's why I'm here researching the subject)...
