Registration of pistol braces will require a photo of the firearm
The War on Guns has the story. To register one, you must also send a photo of it.
I bet they are trying to avoid what happened during the 1986 ban on registering newly-made full autos. As the deadline approached, makers of full autos, realizing prices would skyrocket once the ban went into effect, began rushing out and registering receivers. Those who made folded receivers, ones bent out of sheet metal, stamped out as many pieces of sheet metal as they could, stamped them with a serial number, and registered them without finishing them as receivers, then finished making them after registration. As I recall, there was one company that didn't even bother with that, they just registered a lot of serial numbers, then made the receiver and serial numbered them later.

Mike-SMO, you’re not clear on how registration works, are you?
This is also derived from the learning (by left) of the California (second) AW ban, "SB23" in 1999.
People were buying tons of receivers in 1999 pending special 'grandfather'
registration cutoff at end 2000 (actually, 23 Jan 2001 for AR and AK
'series' guns due to a misprint and the Kasler ruling). They were then slapping the one upper they owned on all receivers and filing witht that physical description of gun - and some certainly filed their 'intented' configuration just having the receiver but no other parts.

Make sure that all the meta data is off or corrupted if you use a digital camera or smart phone. No point in giving Team Biden your location, phone number or serial number.
