http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w44/jp660605/gun4.jpg I just finished this build, hoping to get out and shoot it next weekend. Also need to find a better way of locking the CAA saddle unto the buffer tube. Its loose and slides off or around too easily. |

Walker/Cane rubber tip and Tennis Overgrip or I believe Replacement Grip Wrap for tennis racket handles that can be bought at any sporting goods store. I got mine at Sports Authority or Academy for about $6 ... it was the Gamma Brand. Here is a link to give you ideas. I had a brown leather one previously but decided to go with the black. http://www.tennis-warehouse.com/catthumbs.html?CCODE=OverGrips http://www.tennis-warehouse.com/catthumbs.html?CCODE=ReplaceGrip |

There seems to be quite a few people recently throwing on a standard buffer tube and calling it a pistol... I thought that wasn't kosher.

I almost went that route, but I was going to have to buy a tube regardless, so I bought a $25 RRA tube, just to always have a dedicated pistol lower, should the BATFE get more goofy. |

In the words of Buford "Mad Dog" Tannon, "You thought wrong, dude." A shoulder stock is what makes a short barreled AR15 an SBR, not the ability to mount one. It only becomes "not kosher" if you install a buttstock, however the ATF recommmends not having a compatible stock in proximity to your AR pistol, so that there is no doubt that you do not intend to make it into an SBR. Most guys that have pistol buffer tubes have them so they there is absolutely no question of it being an sbr from authorities that aren't always 100% clear on the laws. Regular buffer tubes are totally legal on a pistol. I think the ATF just understands that if you have an AR pistol, and you also have a buttstock that you could slide onto that pistol, at some point the temptation may be too much for some people and they may install that buttstock. That would then be an illegal SBR, even if it was just in the privacy of your own home. You aren't actually breaking the law until you install the buttstock, but just to be safe, you should probably have a friend hold onto the stock until the tax stamp comes in, so the BRD doesn't tempt you into making a bad decision. Check the AR pistol ATF letter scans thread: http://i1236.photobucket.com/albums/ff455/DonFerrando/BB.jpg |

There are some bad @ss pistols in this thread. Can't wait to get started on mine!

http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m127/sirhybrid/IMG_0081.jpg More pics of my new build. It's my second gun, my first AR, my first build. And I'm awaiting my tax stamp so I can build it into an SBR. I figure, if I'm gonna get into the AR15 game, I may as well start off with a bang. |

Bang? More like Sonic Boom! Nice! I need to GTFO of Illinois so that I can go the SBR route. At least I can have a pistol and hi-cap mags, for now!

Okay, I give up... What's with the MBUS on the 6 o'clock rail? ~Augee I don't know... I'm still not sure why there's an optic mounted on a non-free-floated quad rail... That said - I saw a guy this weekend at the gun range shooting his Model-1 Sales M4gery with a non-free-floated quad rail... He had a $1200 ACOG on it... He was getting 5-INCH "Groups" at 25 yards from a sandbag rest! Non-free-floated rails are NOT the best place to mount an OPTIC or RED DOT if you want any decent accuracy, IMHO. |

Yeah, handstop til I pony up for a gear sector one, I had it laying around and it does the job. As for the optic, I checked on here if the kac rail would even conceivably hold zero, got a bunch of yeses, and it has. Eventually I'll get an a3 receiver, but i've got to sbr it first. |

am i missing something, or are there numerous pics of sights on backwards, carbine buffer tubes that would readily accept stocks (hope you don't have any car stocks in proximity, just in case...), and questionable mount choices... all within the last couple days?

What's wrong with having a buffer tube that would "readily accept stocks"? That isn't illegal. Some people build their pistols and use them while awaiting SBR paperwork to be approved. Why would you waste the money on a "pistol" tube, if you would eventually be installing a stock? (Even if they are inexpensive...) Not everybody NEEDS a pistol only buffer tube, only the guys that are overly-paranoid about breaking the law. http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m127/sirhybrid/big-brother-poster.jpg Many people seem to think the NFA can just change their minds at a moments notice and suddenly they are going to raid your house and arrest you for laws you had no idea you were breaking. There are publicly documented letters from NFA branch all over the internet stating what is and isn't legal on an AR15 style pistol. And, NO, you do not need your own hand-written in blood and notarized letter from the NFA addressed to you, in order for the laws to apply to you. A law is a law. It goes for everybody. That's how laws work. *end rant* |

That's how laws work. *end rant* If you are at the range and are shooting your AR pistol with a carbine buffer tube on it and you have your 16" M4 sitting there on the table with a 6 position stock you can get busted very easily. If you have a stock that fits on that buffer tube along with the pistol it's an NFA violation. Are your chances good of getting busted? No, I'd say slim to none. Is it worth the risk to end up in jail or even get charged? Fuck no. Don't advocate not to worry about breaking the law. Don't give people the impression it will be fine if they are unlucky enough to be shooting next to a couple of ATF guys when they get arrested. Constructive possession charges have been sustained against people and those people went to jail so follow the laws and don't be stupid over a $20.00 buffer tube. |
