My first SBR build

[Kruel J]

Nice! I like it.

You need to look into the Cloud Defensive tape switch mount for the Streamlight pressure pad. I just put the same set up on my SBR and was surprised how bad the mounting system is from Streamlight. The Cloud is a little expensive but it is also a night and day difference.

I will check them out! Thanks!

It actually feels ok for what it is. Being left handed I replaced the adjustment knob with a machine screw otherwise it was a cheek-grater.


But at I think 5.4 ounces? It's worth the weight savings!

Do you remember the size of the machine screw?

Pretty sure it was 10-32 threads. I got them at Ace Hardware, already painted black. I bought 4 just to be safe.

Cool. I went with trust which I've heard can take longer.

I've found on eForms with a Trust is as about as quick as individual. Last one I did was just shy of a month. A Trust with paper, again in my experience, takes an eternity. YMMV.

Yeah, that's next.

SBRs and cans are often the "gateway drug" into the wonderful world of NFA.

Did you blur out your name and city in the receiver?

Nope, I blurred the serial number. My engraving is on each side of the trigger hole so it can't be seen easily.

Out of curiosity, who did your engraving work?

BYE Engraving in Portland. $40 and they do it while you wait.

I'd have to try the stock to place any judgement, it looks uncomfortable to the eye.

Some other more traditional light stocks, just in case!

The MFT is only 1 ounce heavier.
