Restricted AR180B upper, NoDak Lower?

Yes, but with a "short" upper the lower has to be registered - and that's what I'm looking at. I was wondering if anyone had experienced any issues with the registration. I want to be sure there's a restricted FRT number for the NoDak receiver.

The lower is restricted or Non restricted depending on what upper is on it.
The frt entry for the nodak lower lists both barrel length. With the ar180 uppers as restricted and the ar180b uppers as non restricted.
You won't have any problem registering it. It's the same parent frt number for either NR or R, just different child/sub entries listing the different barrel lengths.
From the sounds of it a firearms verifier will be needed to do the appropriate paperwork for registering it as restricted but it should be very simple.
Excellent, I was a little concerned about the approach they'd take to using that lower under a Sterling upper. If that's not an issue, I'll talk to the man with the Sterling, and buy the bits that I can. Thanks guys.
Just be sure to take care of the paperwork before taking it out. Even at a range you've got an unregistered restricted so penalties will be pretty severe if you got stopped and the 180 doesn't need any negative reports to draw their attention to it.
If you're just buying an upper and a NoDak lower you'll need an AR180 lower parts kit to finish the lower. They use an AR trigger but everything else including the trigger pins is different.
