Is it legal?

[M.Link]

I thought I saw somewhere that its illegal to put a forward grip on a handgun. So is it illegal to put a Vertical grip from like an AR on the rail of a Glock? I saw somebody do it and was just wondering if it was ok. I don't see a point in doing it.

It is Very Illegal!!!

If a Handgun has a stock added it is then an SBR

If a Handgun has a Forward grip it is then an AOW

Unless you have a $200 stamp on the correct form, your asking for trouble


The only thing that would be ok, is a strap or bi-pod.

I thought so. I don't know the guy who had it, he may have even had a stamp for it. It was up at a shooting pit. It was a G17 with 33rd mags, a vertical grip, laser, a threaded barrel and some like 3" long flash hidder thing and a single point sling. Pretty ugly.

If you do it, you get some free bracelets from the government...

Don't these laws just scream "Gun control works!"
I mean seriously, can you even use a forward grip in a drive-by? Barring that, how can they take your wallet from you if both hands are on the gun? "Give me your money...erm....just uhh, put it between my teeth *muffled* shanksh"

Yea I don't see the use of these kind of laws either. Seems like there are a lot of sensless weapon laws. Like the double edge knife laws, a single edge can stab something just fine, why do they make a big deal with double edge? Also, brass knuckles, I bought some at a pawn shop as a "paper weight". I had them hanging from my mirror in my truck. A cop in tigard pulled me over for 37 in a 35, then hassaled me over the "paper weight". I had like ten guns with me, all legal, but by the end I had 6 cops empty my truck and then let me go. I know its there job, but the laws that make that there job are pretty stupid, I think.

Agreed.

Sorry for my ignorance, but what does SBR and AOW stand for?:huh:

 

[490_blaster]

short barrel rifle= SBR
any other weapon=aow

don't be sorry, the only way to learn is to ask. There are a lot of people on this forum who are full of knowledge and willing to share what they know.

AOW is basically whatever the BATF decides that it should be. They are very zen that way...
