Barrel Extending

[perautowks]

I want my PPS43 folding stock operational but refuse to pay a tax! I think adding barrel length would be better than a fake can or other extension. I know I could change it over to 9mm but prefer the 7.62x25 ballistics. Any suggestion, thoughts?

So you already have an SBR, but want to now make it legal so you don't have to get a tax stamp?? Depends how short the barrel is from a 16" length. How long is the barrel??

Call ATF Indy, and ask how to do it.

The stock is spot welded to the receiver so it is classified as a pistol right now. Very ackward to shoot! The barrel is about 10 inches so I won't convert it to a SBR.

My advice...pay the $200, break that weld, and shoot it as it was intended! Nice piece!

 

[edwea]

Also, how bout some pics?

200 bucks for a stamp is much less than what it would cost to extend the barrel. And, it would look weird.

So, it has a 10" barrel, and a stock? hmmmmm

It’s welded in the folded position so it can’t be opened.
That’s why several have told him to pay for the stamp, then remove the weld so the stock functions.

Top folding stock spot welded onto top of reciever.

For those who are knee-jerking about NFA violations, these are pistols, and pretty common.

A barrel extention is going to extend beyond the muzzle brake. It would have to be machined to slide over the existing barrel and then pinned and welded in place. Sounds like a tax stamp would be an easier solution.
