Inheriting a 80% Build

Not to be morbid, but when I'm gone what is the legal situation of my 80% built AR? Can I just will it to a eligible family member? With my death is that a legal reason for my exectutor to be able to sell them?

  Depends on your state. Better to pass it before you kick off or at the very least make sure the will-ee wants it.

  My stripped lower builds (no 80% but similar boat) will be a pain to "sell" but easier than 80%. If I remember right I have to strip the lower to sell it and can't sell it as a complete build.

  Edit: If you're in a state that doesn't make you go through FFL for everything give it to them while alive. Or like suggested give it to them by a trusted friend (avoid lawyer or executor).

  If you're going to sell most states don't "allow" sale of finished 80% (kind a defeats being under the radar). So you might have to strip it and sell everything but the finished 80% like I would have to if I wanted to sell my stripped lower build.

  So are you saying yoshmyster that it would be better for my heir to strip the AR and sell the lower and other parts

  separately ?

  I'd say you'd be better off by NOT even mentioning this but I'm NOT a lawyer. Electric pencil some jibberish & numbers on the darned thing and don't look back.

  Check your state, it can and will most likely be different than what some one living elsewhere tells you.

  The whole point is to keep it off any radar. Mentioning it in a will would defeat that and potentially just open it up to seizure.

  I agree with Mr. Perfect.. It doesn't exist.

  who ever ends up with it, could have built it themselves, then no transfer is needed, if picked up in person........

  Yes, this, just hand it to chosen family member ahead of your passing.
