Reminder, an SBR is an NFA item and needs to be treated as one. You will be the only person allowed to fire it (unless you put it in a trust) and you must fill out paperwork if taken out of state for any reason.
Let's clear up some things.

1. "Building" a SBR: Fill out the Form 1. Once approved, you may now "build" your SBR after you engrave the receiver. What that really means is that you may now attach a short barrel and stock to the lower receiver, but you must engrave the lower receiver first since you are the manufacturer of that SBR. i.e: You take your S&W lower receiver and have someone engrave your name and city on it, or the name of your Trust, or whatever name you used on the ATF Form 1.

2. Anyone can use your SBR if you are there with them. Only you, or the trustees listed in your Trust, may possess the NFA item. That means you and your friend can go to the range together, but you may not let him borrow your SBR.

3. If you wish to take your SBR, or other NFA item, out of state, or you move out of state, you must notify and get approval from the ATF in advance. https://www.atf.gov/firearms/docs/fo...s-atf/download

Please don't take my word for it. The ATF and many other sites have all of the information you need to be in legal compliance. The process isn't complicated, it just has to be done correctly.
