There was another thread in the General Guns questions and I asked a question on there and am more confused then before.
So do you feel you know the Law?
1) Over and Under OAL 26 inches....
2) Barrel shorter than 16 inches - end of threads to front of upper receiver....
3) OAL > 26 inches and Barrel under 16 inches - With pistol buffer tube
4) OAL < 26 inches and Barrel under 16 inches - With pistol buffer tube
5) Butt Stock or Pistol Buffer Tube Only....
6) Vertical forward Grip - Mag Pull AFG2 is legal on Pistol package
I know some of the responses will be the known obvious that seem to be commonly known to members on this forum, but if you start to look at specifics, Im confused now, especially after reading through the other Thread where others tried to understand and reason the legality of certain guns.
Specifically, Im wondering about AR pistol setup compared to a SBR. Here are a few key issues. What Are They? Pistol, Rifle, Or SBR?
1) Building a AR that has a OAL over 26 inches and has a Barrel less than 16 inches with a pistol buffer tube. Example - OAL is over 26 inches and has a 10.5 inch barrel.
2) Building a AR that has a OAL under 26 inches and has a Barrel less than 16 inches with a pistol buffer tube. Example - OAL is under 26 inches and has a 7 inch barrel.
It doesn't seem so clear when you look at the two options does it?
When an AR Pistol is not a Pistol - ATF responds
These weapons have a VFG on them and are considered legal. ATF says as long as it is 26" long it is legal ????
