No FFL required for uppers. The lower has the SN and is counted as a firearm
Hi Nick, No FFL is needed only for the lowers of firearms. This is where the serial number is.
No, only a Lower (which is serial numbered) requires an FFL. An upper is considered an accessory.

Hi Nick,
No any uppers, barrels, handguards, triggers, muzzle breaks can be sent to your front door. Any item with a serial number ex. (Lower for an ak/ar, pistol, complete rifle or shotgun). Anything else is considered an accessory and you can have them shipped direct to you. Buds also has a list of FFL'S. If they do not have your specific FFL you may have them fax a copy of their FFL to 1-800-804-5569 or they may use this link.
