I got it directly from an ATF agent I worked with for a number of years. According to him if you make and serialize it you in essence became a firearms manufacturer, thus need a federal license as well as to sell it.
Like I said I'd love to do one, though. I just don't want to take that chance. Even if I die and left it to my family I don't want to leave them with that headache.

If you intend to make the. For sale then yes he is correct. However if you only intend to make them for yourself but later down the road need to transfer it then you can serialized it. It is the difference between it being a for profit business and a once or twice in a lifetime transfer. I will see if I can get the specific info just for research sake.
