is my PSL 100% legal????

[ls1ss]

i just finished building the parts kit with a romana receiver.


i put a plate to block the thumbhole..... but no bullet button and it has the original muzzel brake with spring loaded pin holding it on, (dont see any welds)
and it has the bayonet lug.


not sure if its legal. can anyone share there input..

i searched high and low and everyone has a bullet button and or a welded brake?

Don't need to weld your break on a PSL, the muzzle device that comes stock on a PSL is a "Muzzle Break" not a flash hider so it is not a "Evil Feature". The barrel is long enough to clear any length length issue so welding the muzzle device is not needed. To drop the mag lock all you have to do is fill in the thumb hole stock. Only reason to have muzzle break welded is to meet length guidelines and the bayo lug thing is complete BS. It has been discussed in length in another thread on this forum... So don't be a monster and destroy your bayo lug.

As long that stock with the thumbhole can't be used like a thumbhole or a pistol grip, and the muzzle brake is actually a muzzle brake, you should be fine. To the best of my knowledge a PSL should be well over 30 inches so I can't see why one would need to weld the muzzle device on...but I am probably missing something. I'm sure someone more acquainted with PSLs will chime in.

For future reference however, if you are not sure about the legality of a certain configuration, pose the question in the form of a hypothetical...ie "if I were to do this and this to my gun, would it still be legal?".

You are well over 16" in bbl, and 30" OAL, so there is no reason for welding.

For CA AW purposes, it seems like you're compliant as a featureless build - releasable magazine but no thumbhole grip and the muzzle device is considered a break. The trickier issue is 922(r). This postlaw abiding citizens," so to the extent we are capable of obeying laws, even those we know are unenforceable, unconstitutional, or otherwise illegal, we should strive towards compliance.
