Have you chrono’ed any loads through that stubby barrel? Just curious.

(BTW, don’t tell anyone, but that’s not a pistol anymore. )

Not yet. According to all the things I've read, I should be getting a hair over 1700fps with Barnes 110gr VOR-TX, which should give me an effective range of about 150-200yds, which is exactly what I built the gun for. I want to give some Lehigh Defense loads a try as well.

As for being a pistol... what did I miss? Brace, no VFG...

TAM, sure looks like a pistol to me as well. What are you seeing that leads you to that conclusion? I have virtually the identical set up on more than one firearm. Thanks!

THIS has a rifle stock, therefore it is no longer a pistol:


That is what I was referring to. My son has the nearly identical setup, with the same stock. He had to register the lower for an SBR and get the stamp. BTW, he worked for a NFA dealer for a while and knows what he’s talking about. Only difference is, his is chambered in 5.56, with a 7” barrel.

Anderson (FDE)/PSA(Blue) lower, Ground Zero Precision Ballistic Advantage 9" parts kit (Trenton, TX), KAK flashcan, Aero Precision M-lok hand guard, Shockwave brace, Trinty Force BUIS, Magpul MOE K2 grip (FDE), homemade quick adjust sling, Magpul FDE/German Blue Duracoat.

Very nice rigs. My plans were to use the 20-rounder mag in the gun as soon as I can get one, but it's nice seeing the same mindset.

I like the 20 round magazines. They keep the pistol a little more compact, fits the bag well, and still provides 20 rounds immediately. I figure if I have to get to the 30 rounders then things are not looking good and compactness isn't going to matter much.

What red dot are you running?

Is the 16" a 300 also?

I’m pretty sure if your oal is >26inches you can have a vertical grip, can anyone verify?

If you mean a vertical foregrip, then my understanding is that that would push the pistol into the AOW catagory

You could add a handstop: https://www.magpul.com/products/xtm-hand-stop-kit

So if a vertical foregrip classifies it as an AOW, but a handstop does not, then what about an angled foregrip? What if they called it an "ergonomic handstop"?
