    I would suggest that you do the Efile SBR. Any length or caliber you want. Stock or no stock, front grip or not , change at will and it can be carried loaded on your person or in a vehicle with carry permit. No brainer, really.

    I always suggest virgin lower "FTF form".
    Don't need a fore grip.
    Don't need a stock.
    Don't need to beg for permission.
    Don't need to pay for permission.
    And it can be carried loaded on your person or in a vehicle with carry permit. No brainer, really.



    Completely legal pistol with zero paper trail.
    TASTES GREAT! Less government.

    Falling off topic, but how do you like that Ergo magwell grip? I thought about one but went with the MAKO grip instead, but it doesnt allow for hi cap mags like my 100rd drum (which whatever, thats more a novelty anyways) or my 60 rd mag.

    Start here. I posted three "mini-reviews" on three slings I own(ed). I sold the SOB sling.

    I think it's perfect for a pistol. It's small and light.

    I like them a lot - for a PISTOL.
    I have never gripped a carbine at the magwell, but a pistol is balanced differently, and sometimes it works out better to grip it that way.
    Having a magwell grip doesn't mean that you MUST grip it that way, but if you choose to do so, it makes it so much easier to get a good hold.

    I looked at ALL the different options and chose this for it's minimalist design and clean lines.

    Here's a full review I did - with lots of closeup pics. (sorry - Photobucket slapped their watermark on them)

    Thanks. I have it on my 8" pistol, and it definitely seems to be the most balanced spot to hold the gun.

    Reading Armament just behind me by Angelica Park, or if you want to travel Lanco Tactical in Elizabethtown. A 14.5" barrel needs the longer A2 FH as stated earlier. If you haven't bought yet, look for a 14.7" barrel, and get an A2 FH.
    Don't sweat the petty stuff, and don't pet the sweaty stuff.
