Guaranteed way to get you thread "crapped", list "parts" in the "rifle and shotgun" section.
no they have not been built on yet and yes you can build it into a pistol since it's stamped Multi-Caliber
Do so at your own risk. if they weren't logged as pistol lowers by the manufacturer, then they're rifle lowers... read the law.
You can build a pistol off a stripped lower if it was transferred as a "receiver". Which it should have been. If it hasn't been built into anything, it is neither pistol or rifle.
Yeah, and you'd probably be OK providing the BATF wasn't willing to split hairs in court, or wasn't pissed off at you for something else.
The only safe way to build a "defensible" pistol is to start with a lower stamped "pistol", that has never been built as a rifle.
Read the law. if you don't have a lot of experience with that sort of thing get someone who does to interpret it for you before dispensing legal advice
I don't mean to preach, but this a commonly misread reg that mostly is loosely enforced, but............

Yes, when this was transfered, it was literally called in as a "receiver" and when my FFL referenced to the person on the other end (the state) it was logged as "multicaliber" (never referenced as 5.56, 6.8, .22,9mm...etc). So not to point fingers but someone here is wrong in a sense. But as it stands currently (unbuilt) it's neither a pistol or rifle...it's a paper weight for all I'm concerned, until its fully built and called in to register its final caliber. Say what you say but I'm not holding anyones hands in court nor I doubt that the Feds will invest that much time and financial resources to split hairs on this...unless as stated prior, they had more mounting evidence to build a case on...but all in all, I'm not trying to turn this post into a discussion, I'm just trying to sell the receivers to whom ever plans on doing the resource on their own....
One little word engraved on the side is not a defense, photographic documentation of your build can be.

Oh, yeah. Take your YouTube video right into court with you. That'll prove at at a minimum you were ignorant of the law, and we all know how well that holds up...
