To my knowledge, as long as it's permanently attached, it's legal. Pinning would seem to meet this requirement. When I discussed this w/ my local gun-guru, he said pinning one on would make it legal length - never stated anything about welding it. I believe some mfg's weld simply for added "insurance", but pinning is a permanent method of attachment in itself.

Actually, BATF has approved the "pin & weld" method, but has never approved (to my knowledge) pinning only. Of course, BATF's opinion is just that until it's held up in court, but court costs will be MUCH more expensive than having the FS attached with an approved method.

When you say "pin & weld", do you mean weld over the pin so it cannot be removed?

Weld over the hole that pin was inserted to close it and also to "fuse" the pin to to the brake.
