Anyone who has one, what do you use for the overall length for the Form 1 submission??? Assuming standard M4 type 6-postion stock.
And, I assume the end of the barrel is the important part, not the rail if it sticks out past the barrel (?) For the 5" TROS 3 lug. |

From guntrustlawyer.com: 4f should contain the overall length of the firearm. (For a Suppressor use the overall length of the Suppressor) (If there is a folding stock or collapsible stock, the measurement should be made with the stock fully extended) |

OK, length to barrel, and I'll build it with no handguards, and then add them later after the initial "build" (?) Since I don't know what had guards I would be getting anyway.
Also, for folks who have TROS barrels, how are they for accuracy? Are they good barrels? |

Im pretty sure the suppressor part is if you are building a suppressor on a Form 1.
As far as my approved Form 1 OAL with this TROS barrel once it arrives is: 21.5 OAL with 5" barrel. BUT I am using a LWRC UCIW...So add a few inches for a full size stock/tube. |

Thanks, I wasn't thinking of the suppressor part in (), more the OAL. But after I replied I realized that it must be the end of the barrel since things like removable muzzle devices don't count.

I asked TROS about length:
"I have barrels in process now. Should go to black oxide early next week, then laser engraving and then start shipping the following week. The OAL will usually be determined by the handguard as most people use a standard CAR length handguard that covers the barrel." Still don't know what to put on my Form 1 
Once they ship, if he has any in stock I'll get one. |

I'm convinced that they are made by carbide toothed beavers (union), and the local has gone on strike.

Just sent $$ to buy an adapter from Mark a week ago. Now I wonder how long this adapter would be finished. Didn't ask him how long it takes. If I have read this thread ahead of time, I'd reconsidered this route.
