Damn, in! I'd sell my 9mm AR pistol in a heartbeat and get one of those Evos

I was just debating building a 9mm vs .300blk AR, for hunting on my small farm. This may be the best bet!

I was under the impression 922r only applied to "sporting firearms" and that NFA registered guns were not "sporting";ergo parts compliance is a non-issue?

I just tried the only the best facebook page again and it appears they took down the Evo and Bren info...unless I just couldn't find it. Anyone else have any other dealers who will be selling these? A PM would be just fine. Thanks much.

Guys, doing a SBR build would be difficult, as SBRs built on imported guns are required to have all the stupid USA compliance parts. I don't know where you could get those. The Sig brace though would NOT require all that garbage, and is the way to go. You are wrong. Why is he wrong? Be specific, with citations. |

I really don't like the looks, so I'm still going to get an MPX. Nice to see another option.

I was under the impression all SBRs were immune from 922. View Quote A lot of people are under that impression, due to internet mongering growing out of an ATF letter that is now 20 years old. The problem is that the text of the law itself, the clearly recorded intent of Congress, and a 2009 ATF letter, all say otherwise. |

I've have had 6 Cz's. All have been trash. I am building a BFONG from a Scorpion kit. At least if I build it I know wit will work - full auto with no paperwork on a shit company design FTW.
Carlos the Jakel was the luckiest SOB on earth if his Cz's worked. I have had 5+. All have been lemons. No way that in my 20+ years of collecting mil surps that [b]only[/b] CZ firearms have been the only firearms that have been trash EVERY time. I'll buy the kits and build them myself - I wouldn't trust them to build a bicycle. |

Well IANAL but dbrowne is correct. 922 applies to title 1 & 2 weapons in the mind of the ATF, regardless of whether you can make a legitimate argument to the contrary. That means that they will pursue the issue against you in court if they want to. Do they want to? That is another argument in and of itself. If they do, you will lose your firearm in a best case scenario and pay twenty times more than its worth in legal bills in a worst case scenario. The ATF is full of cocksuckers and there isnt much we can do about that.
However, if 922 compliance is easy, its all a moot point, right? Do any of our european members have one they can strip down for us and help with the parts count? I know its blowback, but does it have a "trunnion" or a "barrel extension"? 10 imported parts off the list is the magic number. If the Evo imported parts count quote of 12 is accurate (seems low to me) then someone like Manticore could supply 922 parts and make a few bucks doing it. Followers, floorplates and hammers are usually the easiest, but I dont think too many folks here are familiar with the Evo innards. 27 C.F.R. 478.39 lists 20 parts: (1) Frames, receivers, receiver castings, forgings or stampings Evo has at least 1 (2) Barrels 1 (3) Barrel extensions (4) Mounting blocks (trunions) (5) Muzzle attachments 1 (6) Bolts 1 (7) Bolt carriers (8) Operating rods (9) Gas pistons (10) Trigger housings (11) Triggers 1 (12) Hammers 1, I dont think its striker fired (13) Sears 1 (14) Disconnectors (15) Butt stocks (16) Pistol grips (17) Forearms, hand guards (18) Magazine bodies 1 (19) Followers 1 (20) Floorplates 1 The rest of the stuff, Im not too sure about. The pistol grip seems to be part of the frame, the butt stock may or may not be available at all. Does it have a traditional disconnector? Is the forearm removable? It doesnt appear to be. Gas piston? Probably not. Carrier? I dont know. I count 9 parts now, not having one in front of me. 922 might not turn out to be a big deal, especially for those who are patient enough to wait for a few US parts. |

So what is the deal with these? I have about them and seen pictures before, but that is about it. Are they supposed to be in the league of MP5's as far as quality goes? Or is it just the excitement of something we assumed we would never be able to have, and no we realize we might be able to get one?

I'm addressing the people/argument that seem to think that you can just toss a stock on something like these guns, do your Form 1, and call it a day. |
