10.25" upper..... is that the right link?
 If so, then I'd better get started on the SBR paperwork before building..... Anything less then a 16" barrel is concidered a 'short barreled rifle' and requires special paper work (aka approval).Just order the 16" upper and you'll be fine. M1S, lots of people have used them, some like, some don't. But most all agree, the price is in their 'like-able' range. Doesn't NY have a ban?  |

You should hunt for all the parts. You will understand the rifle better. |

Of the two kits that I've purchased from Model 1 Sales, BOTH of them had misaligned front sights. I repaired the misalignment, but I shouldn't have had to. It was cheaper to repair them than to ship them back for replacement and take a chance on getting more misaligned barrels/sights.

I think you will be ok with an M1S kit, they are not the best, but there not overly expensive either. The last time I built an M1S kit the roll pin for the bolt catch was a little big and I had to Dremel it down a bit and the spring for the front take down pin had to lose a few coils. Study up on the stuff in the build it yourself section of this web site. Also you might want to get the tool for installing the front pivot pin spring and detent.

Make sure it is ban compliant or you'll have a problem, unless you are exempt (IE LEO).

You also might look at Del-Ton for a kit. I am also looking at a 16" CAR build and from the posts I have read have a pretty good reputation. I belive their basic kit starts at $455, only $20 more than the M1S.
Good luck and have fun! |

I'm not sure about NY state or if it's the city of NY..... I bet someone will chime in from that state. Sad though.... most of NY state is still open country...but NY city destroys it for the rest of the state....
