after SSE ends, modular trigger pistols the new trend?

[Wallabing]

I've handled the Beretta nano and the P320, I am fan of their modular serialized triggers groups.

Pretty much the only thing we have to do now is mill a copy, or aluminum cast the small shell that accepts the springs, sear, trigger, disconnect.

Then we can buy the frame and complete slide right from the manufacturers and get a legally working off roster gun?

Doo it.

I will await your progress report.

[Capybara]

Don't know if that would work but I like how you think Wallabing.

If someone comes up with an 80% P320 "receiver," I'd buy one.

I still think that you would have to originally build a compliant pistol, one that is bolt action or break top that is single shot. Since the modular trigger group is the part that is serialized, I'm assuming that this itself it considered a pistol in California. But this is a very interesting sort of limbo and something that I have wondered about.

I have a P320 in jail right now, and the first thing I'm going to do it to take out the module. It's probably stamped and bent and made of steel. Some of the other parts would probably be easy to make, and some would likely need to be ordered from Sig.

Here is what the 320 serialized FCU frame looks like. It's a bit more than a 'shell'.

I think an 80% is doable there. Less work than doing an AK...

Who will be the first to come up with the 80% FCU and jigs???

[killifornia]

Could the FCU be put in a rifle if there were an available option? Or would that violate any law like going from pistol to rifle back to pistol configuration issue with ARs?

At least the p250 looks like a basic stamped steel, but I'm not sure how easy it would be to make (not sure if this is the correct term) the mandrel to stamp out the FCU receiver. There's something like 7 or 8 tabs on the frame counting the ejector. Maybe if someone was able to make "prebent" flats that could be pressed in a AK-like jig, it might be (economically) doable.

Second problem, who knows how available the individual parts are from sig.

I've been wondering the same, as there are complete FCUs for sale on gunjoker. Maybe buy one and FFL it as a "long gun", then complete a full carbine/rifle or non-CA-pistol "Other".

Can't go from rifle/long-arm to pistol in california, would trigger the state SBR rules.

That does look a bit more involved than a fully assembled lower. I am sure it is doable though.

This thing has been out for 8 months, I am still waiting on the modularity. Where are the swappable parts that Sig promised.

The slides are all we're waiting on, to be able to purchase the kits. Everything else is available. Some people are using the "carry" slide & barrel, on a subcompact chassis to build their gun now.

Personally, I'll wait until the whole kit comes out.
