You just mean it's not a rifle yet.

eFile is taking about 35 days on a form 1.

Too short to SBR (as currently interpreted), at least without without bastardizing it.

Really well put together pistol though.

Looks like a standard length gas system. That plus a Geneva Convention length stock should give around 29" OAL.

Nice! I pick mine up tomorrow, can't wait!

I just meant SBR’ing it with a triangle or poly folder (or traditional underfolder) usually comes up slightly short (~28” or so).

But you’re definitely right, you can find a stock or pin/weld a barrel extension to get you to 29”.

Geneva Convention stocks are pretty common, and IIRC, there were some triangle folders that are GC length, because they were marketed to the US. I'll see if I can find an example.

ETA: One thing to keep in mind, (Logically) you can't put a flash hider on a Post-October SBR with a folding stock... You're illegally configuring it into a copycat, or something like that -- if you follow the logic of the 29"-rule.

So the state is taking the same stance as the feds regarding barrel length? Muzzle devices have to be pinned and welded to satisfy MD's OAL?

Maryland uses the ATF's guidelines.

I think I muddied the waters by saying bastardized. That just meant “other than underfolder or Warsaw length side folder”.

Yep, several stock options (NATO length stocks, buttpads, AR buffer tube/stock, etc) which can be used. They just look a little odd to me but there’s nothing wrong with them.

True that’d be a copycat. If that was in reply to my mentioning a barrel extension as an OAL fix, it’s really just a tube with no FH capability. Appreciate the reminder though.

Yessir, MSP uses ATF’s standard.

 

[awptickes]

Yeah, I got ya MTEL.

The whole copycat thing is a mess.

That gun is way to cool for that stupid brace....I hope Andy wins so you can add a triangle stock and make that little beauty the Bella of the ball again

I know I know ts the best and easiest current option.....not knocking your choice, just upset knowing what it could!!

I totally agree. I may break down and SBR this bitch.

Too many AK pistols, not enough VEPR 54Rs.
