I know that any manufacturer is obligated to have a unique number identifying every one that they manufacture since 1968 (I believe). This morning I caught the tail end of a radio discussion where an "anti" was pointing out that anyone with the correct 3D setup could produce a firearm without a serial number... What I'd like to hear about is what law/penalty would apply (particularly if it's a one off - not offered for sale, etc.).
I'm pretty well versed with my state's firearms laws (Florida) since I'm a retired cop. What I don't know and would appreciate a bit of education about is the relevant federal statutes (if any) on this topic. Just what are the obligations for anyone intending to build their own firearm as far as serial numbers are concerned?
