If you're ALREADY on the NFA radar...

I don't see a problem. But, you do lose the ability to ever call it a pistol if the ATF loses in court. SBR's can't be carries as a pistol under NC CCW laws.
Take the stock off. Its a pistol. I dont really see a downside to any of this but I do see lots of advantages.
Makes me a heretic in some circles but the NFA isn't that scary.

Manufacturing a rifle from a pistol is manufacturing. Hell, manufacturing a SBR from a rifle is manufacturing.
No its not. Its making. Theres a difference. A big legal difference. Different rules. Only a manufacturer can manufacture. Form 1 makers are not manufacturers.

I'm reconsidering my stance on this. Because I found sonething I want to keep.

If I already own a Glock pistol and a Micro Roni braced Chassis would I be eligible for that free tax stamp?
Yes, want one?
 
I have/had 3 braced pistols. My primary use was as a "car gun": My 10.5" AR with Law folder. I want to still be able to carry this in the front of my car, concealed (for now) so I pulled the brace and put a tube back on it so I'm as "safe" as I can be from the ATF and local and state LEO's in a traffic stop. I will start experiment with slings now. I pulled the folding triangle brace off the PSA AK pistol and installed a two point bungee sling and a red dot. I think I like it better this way. We'll see how it shoots. The triangle brace was cool, but I didn't like it when actually shooting the gun. The 7.5" 7.62 x 39 upper will probably be sold off and the lower repurposed.

I toyed with the idea of the "free" tax stamps. The more I thought about it, I remember something my Dad said. "There ain't nothing in this life free, Son". Our last name is Beavers. Dad was a Marine (died 1994), Door gunner on a Chinook for 13 months in Vietnam. He experiences led him to not have much use or trust in our government (Federal). I don't want to play their (ATF's) game. You change the rules, so I'll try to work the loop holes harder. They will always win that game.

I'm not one of those guys who has the money to legally fight it.
 
I have heard they will let you re-file. The investigator didn’t know if it would be for free or not. He specifically said that was just hearsay from higher ups. So don’t quote me on that.


I recall our government giving some Native Americans blankets in history books. I think it worked out okay for them 😕
It was actually what you could now call Canadians that gave out the balnkets. Look at their gun situation. So good point and the freedom loving American is now as about in the way as our Native American predecessors were at one time.

Well, It was during the French and Indian War at Fort Pitt, where Pittsburgh is today. The British contingent tried the blanket trick. All indications are that it didn't work. Less than a hundred indians died but the Indians already had a smallpox infestation going on from their encounters with settlers whom they had slaughtered. That is the only verified incident.

Just more history that is inaccurately taught in schools. Its like people believe the white man arrived, opened a bed bath and beyond and wiped out the entire population of natives. Its amazing what you learn when you spend the time to actually research this stuff isn't it?

I had to join the Army to find out. I was a NBC NCO and Chemical Weapons Technical Escort. They had a whole section on it at the Chemical schools museum at Fort McLellan. Why they named an Army base after the worst General of the Civil War I'll never know.
