pinned and welded.
A Pinned and Welded flash hider (muzzle device) does not effect the Firearms classification does it?
The barrel still has to be 18.5"+ to be non-restricted.
It can't be 18" with a 1" flash hider welded on and be considered 19" can it?
I was just wonder why if the muzzle device is NOT part of the measurement...why weld it on?
They are not welded on an AR.
I have one of the XCR's that came in with the light (3.5#) trigger and the ambi-saftey.The flashhider on it was removed by grinding the weld that holds the pin in. The weld will look like a small raised "bump" on the bottom of the flashhider. Once the weld is removed (very minimal grinding) an educated whack with a rubber mallet is all it took to get the pin out. Once the pin was out I just unscrewed it. Hope this helps.
