Check Out My New Noise Maker!!!!

[bsouthnow]

Just finished this over the holidays (less the forward assist ass which is back ordered duh..........). Made with old parts and a DSA forged lower blank. The only new parts were the front tube, gas block and rear buffer. Hell, that's all the new parts I could find for sell. The whole world is backordered!
What do ya think????

How long can the buffer tube be before they call it a SBR?

The buffer tube is not considered a stock therefore it's a pistol. Don't think there is a maximum length! I know of guys using the ACE buffer tube (which is about twice as long as this one) with a round rubber crutch tip on it for sholder support and according to them, it's perfectly legal. Anyway, the key is for the receiver to be a virgin pistol receiver and the buffer being just a tube. Not a SBR and no need to register.
Anyone???

I would like to have an AK pistol with a 10" rear trunion sticking out the back.

That's crazy. I love it. Have you fired it yet?

[kernelkrink]

Somewhere there's an ATF letter saying it's OK to use the CAR15 standard buffer tube as long as you toss the sliding shoulder stock portion.

I have been wanting to build one but hear they are not reliable, how does your work?

Looks like a great CCW rig for under the seat in the bad part of town!

Thanks folks.
Yes, I fired it out behind the shop (rural area). It is not cycling yet due to the spring (wolf 23 pound 1911) but I hope to tune it in soon with a spring kit I have and a trip to the range where I'm not worried about the cops If not, I'll use the ACE buffer I have put back but I hope to get this 4" tube working. Damn loud but I love making noise.
Reminds me of bluing which I do in the front yard. Most of my neighbors are sure I'm making crack. They are retired and it gives them something to talk about. Love it.
I'll keep everyone posted once I get it running like it's suppose to!
