    Could Scotts do the conversion and would it be MD compliant?

    Unless you pin the muzzle device, it's a SBR because of the barrel length. And it may not make the SBR greater than 29 inches requirement either. Here are the specs from their webpage.

    Understood. I got the impression CNC was selling the barrel pinned since there's no mention of NFA rules applying to purchase.

    I'm not looking to buy a SBR right now but I do like the idea of putting a folding stock on one of these. I think a carbine version of this pistol would be pretty sweet. I'd be interested in converting one of it can be done in MD. I think finding a long enough muzzle device shouldn't be too hard.

    So I guess the real question is, would it be considered a banned AK variant or does it have enough non-interchangeable parts?

    Unless you are making an SBR with an overall length of 29"+, you can't put a stock on one of these in MD. They are an AK variant and would be banned as a rifle something with a butt stock and a 16"+ barrel).

    These can be made into a SBR as long as you pin a muzzle device to the barrel to meet the OAL of 29", BUT, ATF seems to be kicking back SBR form 1 applications.

    Anyone else who got one of these have a hard time ejecting mags? They go in fine, but are a bit of a bugger to remove.

    I haven't had any problem using Pmags. They don't drop free but they aren't remotely hard to remove. Only problem I have is the occasional 1st round not wanting to feed.
