I like the idea of the buffer tube on the back of an AR pistol. The Sig is nice... but with a Buffer tube... specially the ones with foam.. or I've seen people wrap them in para cord... you can indeed shoulder fire it.

There is not much recoil from an AR.. so the buffer tube does not hurt your shoulder... but you can use it to brace and fire and get a good cheek rest.

That AND its the fact I have TONS of spare AR parts laying around at my disposal.... seems like it would make sense to at least buy a lower and make them into something shootable.
