Did the same company ask for paperwork on new items but not surplus? Different companies may have different policies on selling full auto components. As DT Guy said, I believe only the receiver requires paperwork, as well as any component, like a sear for the AR15 as mentioned above, that would make a gun full auto. But some companies may want to make sure that you're buying the parts for a full auto gun you actually own and not to convert(illegally) a gun to full auto. Company policies are often(but not always) more stringent than the laws to help cover their butts in a lawsuit.
