    Default PLR-16 and SBR Question

    I know this has been asked a few times on this forum, but does anyone here own a Kel-Tec PLR-16? What do you think about it? Just a toy gun or also some practical purpose as well?
    I just purchased one and I'll be posting a pic as soon as the forend grip arrives.
    Also, I've been thinking about adding a rifle stock to it and turn it into a SBR. Can anyone advise me on the exact procedure, and who manufactures a rifle stock that can fit a PLR?
    Thanks in advance!

    I have one. I like it. Had FTE issues with it from day one. It was fun on the range but not reliable for anything else. One day the extractor cracked and it was the best thing to ever happen to that gun. Since the new extractor, (probably 2 years) it's very reliable and trouble free.
    As far as practical, I don't find it very practical. But I do love the little guy.
    I would rather grab a Glock or AR if Zombies came knockin.

    Be cautious ... I believe if you add a VFG, the pistol then becomes an AOW and you would need to get your tax stamp. Oh, you would have to have the stamp before you add the vertical grip.

    This is correct.
    If he does legally convert to SBR hes then gtg with the foregrip.
