This has to be NFA only, right?

 

[EugenFJR]

Did the ATF approve it? And if they did, this will go the way of the Sig brace...

 

[NWS]

why would it be NFA?

 

[Strider12]

That's some neckbeard/operator hardware right there.

You order it Romy?

It's hard to tell, but it appears to be pictured on an AR pistol.

No, that is a standard milspec buffer tube which is what is says clearly it is intended to be installed on. It also clearly says it is a buttstock. Not NFA in any way, unless you put it on a SBR. It is not for use on an AR pistol.

Well I hope they aren't trying to mislead customers with an odd choice of photo to portray their product. It's up to each individual to know the law, but I could see this going badly for some unsuspecting folks.

A. They Clearly call it a Butt Stock (which by default makes it a no no for AR pistols)
B. The gun pictured is a 16" non NFA carbine
C. The stock will not fit on Pistol buffer tubes
D. You can't stop dumbasses from being dumbasses.

Yeah, man. Two. One each for when I roll akimbo.

On second look, nevermind. I see that it is a 16" rifle. I first saw it on my phone and I would have sworn it was a pistol. NWS is right.

I get that, but it sure looks like a pistol in the photo. Hell Romy thought it might be NFA at first blush, and he's not a gun noob.

It sure as hell looks like a pistol at that angle.

Even if the barrel was only 2" long it wouldn't look like a pistol.......since the product is clearly called a BUTT STOCK!

If the barrel were 2 inches long it would look like a pistol, regardless the name that the company gave to their overpriced piece of aluminum.
If the barrel was two inches long, it wouldn't make a damned difference what it was called, because it'd be NFA. My point is simply that the photo is very misleading.

 

[NWS]

also not a pistol.

 

[Laufen]

also not a pistol.

Also, clearly a buttstock and clearly NFA.

So because the picture looks like a short barrel, the BUTT STOCK which is designed to fit on a mil spec BUTT STOCK buffer tube is somehow misleading into making people think that the BUTT STOCK which is designed to fit on a mil spec BUTT STOCK buffer tube was made for their AR pistol which cannot legally have a BUTT STOCK attached.


Do I understand you correctly?

Does the picture appear to be a pistol or a rifle?

 

[NWS]

Also, clearly a buttstock and clearly NFA.

It is NFA, legal NFA at that. However the BUTT STOCK on that rifle is not what makes it NFA. That BUTT STOCK is perfectly legal on my legally registered SBR or your non NFA AR15. My BUTT STOCK is not legal on any AR pistol under any circumstances nor is any other BUTT STOCK.

Since it has a BUTT STOCK on it, it IS a rifle. The barrel length makes no difference.

This seems to be difficult for you somehow. Does the picture give the impression to the unsuspecting shopper that it is mounted on a rifle or pistol?
