Registering a semi-auto 5.56 pistol with a 30 round fixed magazine no problem. (Read 25765 times)

Registered today.  :D  No problem. Very uneventful. In and out in ten minutes They knew this was coming for a couple of weeks as I've been in there with bits and pieces. They just used white out on my original lower receiver registration and typed in 5.56 semi auto pistol. In case anyone is wondering, Aero Precision upper and lower receivers, Phase Five pistol buffer tube assembly, 7" barrel from Midway (cheap one), DPMS gas tube, Midwest low pro gas block, YHM carbine length handguard, and pretty much whatever I could get my hands on to get this thing built. I wanted to have this registered as a completed firearm in case I had any problems at the range. The HPD guys were really cool and said "if they give you any trouble at the range, have them call us and we'll tell them it's all good".  :shaka: Hope to see how it fires this weekend.

Welcome to the AR pistol club :shaka:  Here's mine that I registered around 9 years ago
Thanks for doing all the leg work,  all this time I thought we couldn't bring pistol frames into the state without welding the mags on first..

I'll be the next one into the club. Started my two week waiting period this week. Should have all my upper components a day or two after the lower is registered. Looks awesome bro!

Right on!

Told ya so, welcome to the AR pistol club.
You'll have no troubles at the range. I bring mine their once in a blue moon. The Filipino RO are ok with it just don't rapid fire.

Hey suka, it was your posts on earlier AR pistol threads that got me motivated :shaka: and thanks sliver for starting the "are people turning their ar15's in to pistols" thread earlier this year.

NoScade, please educate me... Where is the buffer tube on that?
I think, therefore I am armed.

NICE WORK! Love it!

I'm guessing it is a piston system, so there is no need for a buffer tube.

Ah thank you, new guy.

Very cool. So that's a handgun?
How many shots you think you'll be able to fire on the silhouette side before they stop you?
I think that would be a lot of fun!!!

Seems no different from the XP100's shooting rifle cartridges.
