Short barrelled rifles and shotguns are regulated by the BATFE. One option that had been considered acceptable in the past was to take a short barrel and  pin and weld onto it a flash suppressor.  The resulting combined length no longer being considered to fall under short barrel regulation.  If this is being changed, it poses the risk of making thousands of rifle owners “felons” awaiting conviction.

Personally I have been registering all my stripped lowers as pistols, now I just have to buy a few more pistol buffer tubes and complete the conversion. well if they rule that pinning and welding is no longer a valid modificvation and all our Mforgeries are now illegal weapons we should turn the welded extensions off in mass and enjoy our illegal SBRs while they try to hunt us down and confiscate them.
