If this is the military original, then the barrel is shorter than 16" (about 12" ?), and it has both a shotgun and a rifle tube, I would guess AOW is a better description than SBR or SBS. The tax stamp would be more manageable also ($5 vs $2-400).
As I recall, Springfield Armory make these now, but with an 18" barrel (?) to take it out of the NFA realm. |

Just get the Springfield armory M6. It's not an NFA item, but it's the same thing.

It's close to the same thing- the original was a .222 if I recall while the reproductions are (usually) 22LR or 22Mag.

Why would the military issue a survival rifle chambered in .222 rather than 5.56?
Or are they interchangable? ie non-military cartridge for commie county export?
