Do You Agree With the LGS Guy??

I was in a LGS discussing buying an AR. He suggested I build one and ran the numbers showing how he could provide the components saving several hundred dollars.

Anyway, during the discussion a legal issue came up and I was curious if the general consensus here would match the shop owners.

He told me that because he did not have a license to manufacture firearms he could not assemble the gun. However, he could walk me through the installation of the trigger assembly in the lower and then he could legally complete the build. Basically he said the lower was the firearm, so if I assembled it he could legally do the rest. I’m not sure I am going to pursue this, but does his interpretation sound appropriate?
