Drako in a Center Balanced Systems chassis

So is that still constitute a legal pistol? Very curious.

Yep, no stock it's just a "pistol".

My concern is that once you turn it into a rifle, you cannot legally turn it back into a pistol. Thomson Contenders excluded.

ETA: I screwed up the quotes

That would be true(as silly as it seems) but with this it never gets turned into a rifle so no worries.

So the kit you installed or built doesn't turn this into a rifle? Forgive my ignorance on this - just looking to get educated. I haven't see this kind of conversion before where it still constituted a pistol. Any official language on a build of this type? All that said, it looks great.

The 2nd Amendment is not about rights. It is about CAPABILITY. It is about ensuring the capability to respond to violence, and oppression. Not with 1 round, or 10, but with the full force of indignant violence deserved at a breach of our peace.

Hello all,

New to forum: been around Aks and ARs for a while now.

Here's my Draco with a few minor changes. This was a new, in-the-box Draco pistol about 2 months ago.
In addition to completely disassembling the pistol to re-profile the barrel; I had to make my own hinge block, gas tube end and front and rear end caps for the lower handguard.

Same pistol, different mag.

You can go from pistol to rifle, and now back to pistol, but you CAN NOT go from rifle to pistol.

The latest ruling allows the rules that apply to the Contenders to apply across the board as long as the 16" barrel and 26" OAL are still intact.

Sorry for taking so long to get back to you, I've been busy.

Thanks! According to the BATFE(for now) the it does not have a vertical forward grip and it has no stock so it's still a pistol. You can find the chassis here http://www.cbrps.com/ the idea is it gives it a better balance by moving the grip to the center of balance and allowing you to rest some of it on your arm, of course there are other benefits to it
