I really don't believe this would work or be legal......
 
the liner IS legal it must be 1 piece from chamber to muzzle guys have had it done to short barreled handguns too

what isn't legal anymore is welding on a chunk of barrel to the end
 
A liner must be full length.
The barrel can also be cut in front of the gas block, the stump drilled and reamed out, and a stepped barrel installed. Smaller diameter at the breech end, original diameter from the gas block to the muzzle. This method was used when carbines were converted to .22 Johnson. This produced a handy little rifle a bit hotter than a .22 Hornet. There is a CGN member who alters carbine barrels this way. Forget his board name.
Depending on whether the receiver is GI or commercial, there is a little hood at the breech which can be part of the receiver or part of the barrel. The 'smith will have to watch for this.
 
I think it was manteo that was doing the barrels.all he needed was the stub and gas port.not sure if he still does them
 
I'm afraid this sort of thing is what Blair was referring to when he said:

"There is also a risk that affected firearms owners may elect to replace their firearms with models unaffected by the ban, causing a market displacement. This risk may be mitigated by adding additional makes and models to the list of prohibited firearms in the future."

In other word, if you try to remain legal by complying with the law, we'll just change the law.

You can buy NR M1 carbines made by auto ordinance from site sponsors but the sudden buying spree of sks rifles has me a bit concerned about what drunken billy says
