Some photos to help you:

1) Picture of a hole of barrel in upper of the original AR15:
http://74.86.251.190/original.jpg

2) Picture of the hole in an upper modified to Safir T14. Note that at the bottom of the hole was demoted. This avoids feeding problems.
http://74.86.251.190/new.jpg

3) Back of an upper modified. You need to follow this design to fit perfectly the ejector tab.
http://74.86.251.190/new2.jpg

You can make these two changes with a Dremel.

After that, just plug the barrel of the Safir T14 in the upper modified.
Place the delta ring of your choice.
If the barrel does not get tight, with a dremel, cut a little of the Delta ring to let him fix the barrel firmly.

Then mount the gas system and put the handguard of your choice. Remember that not all AR handguards to serve in the Safir because of its gas system, which has a rather large diameter.

THANKS Otaviod !!!! Great help. Between my Dremel and Drill Press attachment I hve gotten pretty good at simple mill work - these pics help greatly ! Is that a plug in the Gas Port?
I can provide you a link to a Carbine length Quad Rail that I found on eBay that is large enough to fit over the T-14 Piston. email me and I'll send you the link.

And while we are all Noodling and Tinkering - has any one attempted Shortening the Barrel and going for an SBS stamp?
I'm not sure what the issues around possible reduced pressure and the T-14 Piston function would be. I'm not thinking REALLY short - maybe just take it down to 14 inched (including the Flash).
Any ideas?

About handguard:
Any handguard with 1.47" inner diameter is ok. Just ask seller.
I use Troy TRX, this handguard have 1.44 of inner diameter.
I had to use a half-round file to achieve the correct diameter.

About barrel:
Yes, you can.
But a .410 slug or Buckshot in 21" barrel is more effective than most of pistols calibers, in pistols, of course.
If you need a home defense T14. Just let the barrel in original size.
If its only your another AR upper, i think will be cool, but you upper lose efective power.

But is better you will do several tests, the best thing to do is buy an extra barrel separately.

Derringers that fire .410 and .45 Colt are legal because they aren't over .50 caliber (destructive device), and have about a 1/2" of rifling, so they don't qualify as a smooth-bore sawed-off shot gun. A .45 caliber rifled barrel blank chambered for .410 shouldn't require a tax stamp.

That's a great tip for a scratch build - one could make it any length they wanted under 16" barrel length as long as the lower was stamped for SBR.
Now you've REALLY got me thinkin'. THANKS !

What length are you thinking about ?? I'm concerned about the reduced pressure from a shorter than stock barrel. Worth more study - may or may not be an issue - but I'm new to these piston based systems. Busy making mods to my standard AR Upper Receiver based on info from our friend in Brazil - very helpful!

OK thanks to the very helpful photos - all mods are completed. My T-14 is back together with the new-improved metal receiver. All functions PERFECT. I took the opportunity to smooth out the ramp on the barrel and all rounds chamber a lot better. Well worth a bit of tinkering - made a good upper GREAT !

A Taurus Judge fires .410 shotshells, has a barrel well under 18", yet it is not classified as an illegal "sawed-off" shotgun because the barrel is rifled. Why can't we do the same thing with an AR-15?

That would be correct for a normal shotgun, but as you pointed out the upper it self can not
Be registered, but could it be done on an sbr registered lower? Or would it need to be permanently attached
To a lower and then registered as an sbs? The ATF would have to make a ruling on that, and they may also just say no to it.

What is there to rule on? Fill out a form 1 with barrel length and caliber as 410. Refister as sbs.  Nothing to write a letter on.

Based on how I read the Form 1 usage, qualifications and requirements (and I have filed a few) I would say that the "no ruling required" would apply and as said - you just specify the barrel length and caliber as .410 then file for SBS - but this as also said - since the Lower on the AR platform is what "officially" is registered then how does the "once you get an SBR stamp on a lower ANY short barrel upper can be covered when placed on that lower - no matter what was on the original Form 1 as long as it can be put back to original state when filed" apply??? It's something for the Lawyers to argue about (but better to get an ATF ruling rather than the court and Lawyer costs - not to mention Fines and PRISON if you lose). I wish it was less murky but  - there you go.
I was just wondering if there would be a problem with a shortened barrel producing enough pressure to assure reliable cycling via the piston system.

You could put any length shotgun barrel on it.  It would be a SBS so it wouldn't cover SBR stuff, and a SBR stamp wouldn't cover the SBS upper.  From my understanding you'd essentially be building a lower that would only work NFA w/ something like this.  Not a huge issue IMO w/ the cost of AR lowers.  



I don't know about the technical side of this.   I'm sure you could make it run with a short barrel, but I'm not sure what it would take.

OK here are the test results after Desert Testing - Feeding / Chambering is erratic - some rounds do fine other catch and damage cartridge (need to look closer at the Ramp again). Ejection is functioning normal. I did notice some Bulging in the brass on some cases, (see photo link below) but not all - appeared to be random except with the Winchester Slugs.

I'm now a member of the AR-15 .410 Safirarms T-14 club. Got a cardboard tube from Classic Firearms, slid the upper out, and thought either my fingers have swollen, or that's a smaller carry handle! Swabbed the bore out (very dirty) and function fired Remington Express #6 shot (all I have in 2 1/2"). Two failures to feed (bolt rode over shell and pinched it), extraction and ejection flawless. The silly loose FSB shot forward, and the foregrips popped out; nothing that an allen wrench didn't cure. Very easy to disassemble and clean. I will be using metal parts here and there, but I'm satisfied with the basic design. Magtech brass seems the way to go, since I already load .450 Bushmaster with Hodgdon Lil'gun.

Very interested in your loading data for the MagTech brass and the .410 - I have been thinking that it will ultimately be the reliable way to go with this upper. I have also thought that maybe a heavier Buffer (like the one from my AR57 Upper) may help the Bulging Brass issue - any thoughts there?

.410 bore is just that. A .45 LC bullet is .452 diameter. If the barrel doesn't rupture, it sure would get stuck. A Barnaul 97gr. slug is .400 diameter encased in a plastic wad.

It's a bit aggressive, but after I rounded the corners of the chamber with a Dremel (entrance of the barrel) never had feeding problems. But we no have Remington ammo here, just tested that Magtech and Winchester. Slugs and Buckshots.

I knew they would chamber fine and I've cycled them through without a problem but haven't had the courage to pull the trigger.  Wasn't sure if the pressure would be similar or much higher than a .410 round.  So you're saying that the bullet wouldn't pass through the barrel?

45 LC = Maximum pressure, 14000 psi.
.410 2 1/2" = Maximum pressure, 12500 psi.

I contact Safirarms in Turkey and they assured me the following:
This weapon can handle more than 23,000 PSI.

I do not think the pressure as a problem, but the diameter of the barrel.

If I had an old .410 shotgun that I didn't care about, I'd put it in a vise, load a Winchester .45 Colt cartridge with a 250 gr. bullet, tie a string on the trigger and give it a pull. With this Safirarms upper, I'll feed it what it's designed for, but it didn't come with a operator's manual...

I have one, and I've been thinking about pistol cartridges too.

I think what might be the best choice (bolt face, pressure considerations, C.O.A.L., etc) would the the 45-70 in its standard
low-pressue loading (the low-pressure loading for the Springfield Trapdoor rifle).
Obviously you need a new barrel, but the 45-70 cartridge will fit otherwise, and it is still a great close quarter round for this platform.

The 444 Marlin fits too, but chamber pressures of  the standard loading are too high up there for my tastes.

I'm only 26. Military service is mandatory in Brazil. I have experience with 7.62 / 308.
The .410 Or .22 LR rifle is not a service rifle (here in Brazil is FAL and ParaFAL / MD-97), but it is cheap and fun. I really like.

Good shots my friend.

I have had good results with Winchester® Super-X® .410 2-1/2" "000" Buckshot and 1/5 oz. Slug.

Very interested in your loading data for the MagTech brass and the .410 - I have been thinking that it will ultimately be the reliable way to go with this upper. I have also thought that maybe a heavier Buffer (like the one from my AR57 Upper) may help the Bulging Brass issue - any thoughts there?


I'd like to know as well.  Any recommendations for buffers?

I use H2 buffer and Heavy spring. Works very good. Full auto capable.
