If you have an SBR already, why are you getting more permanent flash hiders?
Why not get more NFA uppers?
When you twist off a pinned muzzle device, you damage the barrel beyond use...

You would not believe some of the things people send me.
That's why I take pictures. :haha:
Irrelavent.
When you go to sell this barrel after an inexperienced person realizes their foolish ways to get an SBR, they will lose money. The money they could have bought a tax stamp with in the first place.
It has nothing to do with collectability.
I already know that. That is the only valid reason for this if you live in a communist state.Quote:
There is a noticeable difference when getting in & out of a vehicle and negotiating tight hallways/doorways with a 14.5"+perm flash hider vs. a 16" with a muzzle device attached.
I love my SBR and can't wait for my second to be approved. I've been bitten by the bug. I wish we could have supressors here in VT. My checkbook is glad we can not. Like I said earlier I wanted one non SBR so I do not need a travel letter if I want to take an AR out of state.

so what exactly makes people who want to do this a wannabe ?
IMO: It's far easier to just let ADCO pin it for $30. I've gotten it done by them several times in the past (one very recently) and all have been perfect.
Every time I've gotten my upper back in 5-7 days as well.
Here is an example of one such barrel that had been re-parkerized after the silver solder job:

The first photos were scary looking the second ones made me laugh! This is exactly what I was looking for thank you. I thought there must have been a good reason. If it is too good to be true there is usually a reason.
Keep the camera handy!
