No. By law, the frame, properly called the receiver, IS the firearm. In the case of a single shot muzzle loading rifle, the barrel COULD be the receiver, but not on modern firearms.
Additional: If you displayed the barrel of a firearm during the commission of a robbery (hiding the missing portion of the stock or receiver), you COULD be charged with ArmedRobbery even if it was incapable of firing.
It is the INTENT to threaten your victim by making them believe you had a firearm which is the crux of the matter, not whether it was functional or not.
