Good post, as 'restoring' the cut receivers can put you in dangerous territory. Anything is 'readily restorable' if you have the right tools, but I think you'll be safe if you ensure there are major obstructions to the installation of a functional barrel.
I have been considering one of these kits, but planned to weld the receiver back together, patching up the rough cuts. In order to stay legal, I was planning to weld the bolt in place, and/or weld a piece of solid stock between the bolt and whatever type of simulated barrel I use.
As long as major cutting/welding would be required to make it functional, you're probably OK on 'readily restorable'. If making it work by swapping parts is possible, you're gonna have a bad day.
