Wow. Suprised Sporting Systems is giving out bad and incorrect information in regards to NFA items.
It is only an NFA item when in a NFA configuration. Period. Take it apart and it's a regular Title 1 firearm. Slap a >16" barrel on it, and IT IS a regular Title 1 firearm. Take it across state lines or sell it just like any other firearm.
There is absolutely no requirement to pull it from the registry to sell it in a non-NFA configuration.
The ATF FAQ used to include all of this before it was redesigned:
Q: May I transfer the receiver of a short-barrel rifle or shotgun to an FFL or to an individual as I would any GCA firearm?
A: Yes. A weapon that does not meet the definition of a NFA firearm is not subject to the NFA and a possessor or transferor needn't comply with NFA requirements. The firearm is considered a GCA firearm and may be transferred under the provisions of that law.
