Z-TARD Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 Back to the original firearm posted, I'm wondering if there's language in the federal code that prevents a semiauto version from being made...that would be a GREAT concealed carry option to a holster. I might be getting CA law mixed up with Federal here, but I think because of the shoulder stock, the barrel length on it would have to be 16" or greater. Less than 16" when using a shoulder stock would require it to be registered as a SBR (Short Barrel Rifle) which kind of falls under the same licenseing requirements as machine guns. I think. Regardless, it looks like that would be a lot of fun to shoot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember my friend had a T/C Contender with a 14" barrel and we were told that if he got a shoulder stock for it it would have been illegal. There was also a related issue where they considered the .410 barrel (which makes the gun into a single shot break open tiny shotgun) a "sawed off shotgun" and hence illegal.

Challenger Posted May 9, 2008 Author Share Posted May 9, 2008 Hmmm... I really wonder how many laws and regs there are concerning guns. I bet most people have no clue. (barrel length, muzzles, size..) Now arent some muzzle loaded weapons illegal? Would this include potato guns? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TravRMK Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 I need one of those! Can't ever have enough guns! The AR-50's brake is extremely efficient, and is also verry heavy which also helps with recoil. Nothing like throwing 750 grain steel slugs down range a half mile! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
