I've seen this mentioned a couple of times, but it was a little hard to find the right parts.

Not wanting to ever get sideways with the ATF in case the pistol brace rules change. I added a pinned and welded muzzle device. I couldn't find one the right diameter and length that I wanted but I finally found a longer one and cut it off.

Exactly what I wanted. 16 1/2" barrel that I can use as a pistol or a legal length carbine with a butt stock. Note: Those are mock holes on the extension. I didn't want the muzzle blast from a ported device. The overall length is 30.5"

Looks great, Weagle. Stonehendge did the math once and figured out that the VG6 Epsilon is a perfect fit on a 14" barrel. I totally understand not wanting all that concussion, though.

You could do a suppressor as well.
