I saw a dealer who was offering an AR with a permanent can attached making the barrel 17 inches...saying that only one tax stamp was needed and that it didn't qualify as a SBR..... Does anyone have experience with this?..... If so, could I buy a 10.5 barrel and have a suppressor perm. attached and put it on my AR? Has anyone gone this route?.....what paperwork (hassle) was involved? Thanks |

Being from a no SBR State I recently asked the same question. Here's the thread. AR15.com thread My biggest concern being cleaning the whole thing. Seems like the fowling from the barrel will end up in the can when cleaned. It may be the only option for some who dont want the suppressor on the end of a 16" barrel. |

Actually this is a pretty good way to go. I have done several of these for customers and they all love it. The concerns about cleaning can be solved by using the slotted cleaning jags. And it does save you $200.00. Most of the people I have done these for have been Law Enforcement Officers who like the idea of the can always being on the rifle. (If you own a suppressor why make all that noise anyway??) If the time ever comes to switch barrels I can get the suppressor off and either mount it on a new barrel or change it back to the mounting style of their choice for a small fee. |
I've made the mistake of selling a firearm once.....never again |
Some people care about guns, some about money. Anytime I can trade a pile of paper for a real thing like a gun I am all over that. |
