You cannot remove a serial number from a firearm, nor lawfully possess one from which the serial number has been removed or altered.

18USC CH44 §922(k) It shall be unlawful for any person knowingly to [...] possess or receive any firearm which has had the importer’s or manufacturer’s serial number removed, obliterated, or altered and has, at any time, been shipped or transported in interstate or foreign commerce.
