    Its only 1.5 longer which puts it at a rifle buffer tube in length. I have not seen any BATF rules saying you can not use a rifle length tube . In one letter it says either one is OK. Either way I am not selling these..

    My understanding is if it has a buttstock or can slip one on it- or any resemblence is not good. U can shoulder a carbine buttstock or even a shorter one. My guess is its subjective. I read the BATF rules and there is nothing about the length of the tube. Other info but not on the length.. para cord and rubber sleeves are documeneted as OK... I made it longer to meet the requirement of 26 inches overall to use a forward grip. As documented by the BATF letter I have.

        hmm.

        This is exactly why I wanted to put a A2 length tube on my 7.5" build with the Kx3. its the only way to get to 26" on a 7.5" platform.

          Great looking solution. Rock river arms makes a nice pistol tube too, with a wider tube to prevent car stock attachment, and a nice radius on the butt of the buffer tube. What makes a stock is the "thing that goes down." You can even have a cane tip attached for "preventing it from slipping in the safe." I'm 5'8" and beefy, and my m4 length rra pistol buffer tube braces against my shoulder well(and my lar ops 4 side charger keeps the ch out of your face). For my taller friends, an a1/2 buffer would be better. Like this...

            Hey DENCO I'm interested in getting a custom buffer tube made to fit my sig sb15 arm brace on it. If I were to offer to buy one could any of you help me out. 1 stipulation. It can't be hollow or rather it can't be able to accept a buffer spring or buffer.
