THE IMAGE ABOVE IS A PAID ADVERTISEMENT I know it's only a total of 3-4 inches in difference, but I'm hoping that it make the carbine "look" more correct like it SMG Big Brother. Thanks for looking!! |

I would trust Marvin Pitts to do it. Lots of guys in the FN and AR forum use him. He cut my SCAR barrel from 16 to 10 and did fantastic work. Here is his price list and contact info:

Thanks for the photos... There is a "big" difference in the "looks" department with the shorter, but legal barrel.
Brian45Auto, Nice carbine!! How short did they cut your barrel down to? I really like that fact that the muzzle break is a functioning one. The only difference I'm hoping to do is use a vertical forend grip since I only plan to "kill" paper targets and steel plates with it. BTW, how long is the Thompson muzzle break? Again, THANKS!! |
