Instead of going to all that trouble....just do the form 1, pay your tax and make a gun you can feed easily and shoot/enjoy often.

I just dont understand folks wanting to get around the legal issues. Its not hard at all to comply with NFA rules and build what you want. Ive done it a bunch and will do it again.

I understand the not wanting to wait issues. So build it as a pistol (brace or not) and shoot it that way till the stamp comes back. You will be happier in the end then trying some half-baked work around in a caliber/gauge you cant readily obtain.

Just my .02c....
