This has been an interesting post for me to follow. There seems to generally be two trains of thought...
1) Be careful what I say, be careful where I shoot, be careful what I post, don't allow any vids to be taken and posted of me, and hope for the best. Build it and shoot it, just don't advertise if I inadvertently shoulder it, totally by accident of course.
2) Grow a pair. Do what I want. Who cares what the law states. Screw the feds, they can't watch everything all the time. Grow a pair (I stated this twice, as it seems to be a recuring theme).
For what it's worth, I live in a fairly gun friendly state, but a decidedly gun UN-friendly county. If I buy an AR pistol, I have no intention of trying, intentionally or unintentionally to circumvent the NFA. I think the law is stupid, but so be it.
Have I ever driven faster than 65 in a 65? Sure, but that's hardly a valid comparison.
I am keeping an open mind on my options, but I've read and reread the clarification letter from the ATF with that pesky weasel word "necessarily". That one word lets them pretty much interpret the rule any way they want, which was no doubt their intention when they put it in the letter.
As I stated before, I don't know if I will buy one. I've never even shot one. Based on what I've read here though, the odds are good I'll pass.
Guess I'm just a pussy.
I don't think you are and neither does most of the others on here . What is perceived as a minimal risk to some may seem huge to others and it's your call not ours .Here in South Central Mo. I'm not at all concerned about carrying mine but I would think twice about going to st Louis with it and Ark is a no go so the carrying it from state to state as you stated could be a little bit of a problem . As far as BATF they have good memories When Reagan was president they got cocky and high on Carter's kool aid and Reagan cut their budget so bad they were carpooling ,as long as Trump is in office they will not make waves .

Keep in mind OP, the one guy in here telling you to do what you want, and calling people pussy, is selling all his firearms, destroying his NFA items, Moving to Canada, and wants to renounce is US citizenship, while also actively trying to make as many enemies on this board that he can.
So take his word with a grain of salt, and don’t let it reflect on the ones here trying to help you out.
