NoScade, please educate me... Where is the buffer tube on that?

It's still a DI gun but the spring is above the barrel which is connected to the bolt carrier eliminating the buffer tube assembly

Put a red dot on it and you can shoot it on the rifle side

Would a california "bullet button" also qualify as Non removeable  fixed mag?

Maybe.  The only reason it works for California is because of some "admissions" by the Attorney General saying it qualified in a legal battle in CA.

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..



Hey - that AR pistol looks very familiar  ;)


MMM

Was thinking the same thing. Then it would be possible to bring this in.

I don't think the bullet button is a viable option for us in Hawaii. I believe ours has to be permanently attached.

guess which bench was attracting the most attention at the rifle range today?
hint: it was NOT the guy with the barrett

mahalo dogman, for letting me and my friends check it out
he's got an even better, simpler idea to just block the mag release too

Yes he does, and in less than two weeks he'll be doing it to my pistol lower!

Awesome pistols dogman and NoScade!

It would be cool if someone could invent some kinda spring loaded stripper

clip that you could "QUICKLY" reload the welded mag with from the bottom...

Does the law say the mag has to be enclosed all the way around accept the top?

I know it needs some type of spring load to push the ammo up, but there's

gotta be a way.......hhhhhhmmmmmmm ::)

There is a way.
Start a new post and I'll try to explain and let others learn about it.  Let's keep this post free of other topics.

How did you go about welding the mag to the lower? Was it costly and a PITA? If you left HI and went to a state where AR pistols are accepted, how difficult to unweld the mag and how ugly will it be after? Thanks man!






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.

This is the reason for debate about 30 rnd AR magazines. Just saying.

Did I mention a magazine capacity?

I have heard that currently HPD will only accept a securely welded magazine to the lower receiver and you must perform the welding yourself. If I moved to a state where AR pistols are legal, i'd spend a hundred bucks and buy a new stripped lower.
