SBR bullpup clarification
With regards to M14/M1A bullpup conversions meeting the NFA overall length (OAL) requirement of 26.0"
The official measurement is taken from the end of the butt stock to the crown of the barrel. The 16.25" SOCOM barrel renders an OAL of 24.50". Unless you want to add the 14.0 ounce, 2.0" factory butt stock spacer, the 16.25" barrel does NOT meet NFA OAL requirements in the Rogue. Bottom line: Choosing an M14/M1A with an 18 or 22 inch barrel is the very BEST choice for your bullpup conversion. An 18.0" barreled action in the Rogue renders a legal OAL of 26.25" when measured butt stock to crown. A 22.0" barrel is the ONLY legal length for residents of California.

Pinning & welding the gas lock & muzzle device to the barrel is not a viable option in this case.

I was under the impression that simply doing a spot weld or even solder that could esily be removed would count as a permanent attachment. could be wrong. but I understand on a weapon of value like an m14, most would not want to do that on their firearm

Wow, THANK YOU for posting this SR420, as you know I am considering this stock myself. Does the bbl length of the scout model M1A include the length of the comp or is it 18 without the comp? I have an SEI Coast Guard Comp on mine which is a bit shorter than the stock brake.

Awesome, I was hoping I wouldn't have to permanently pin it on.

1/4 inch over minimum
An 18.0" barreled action (Bush, Scout, MK14) in the Rogue renders a legal OAL of 26.25" without a muzzle device.
