With the barrel length measured from the front to the detach point of the stock it would be over 16 inches and should be considered a normal rifle - kind of like these.

I have read that the feds say a stock would make it a rifle and it must have at least a 16" barrel.
Yes, it is a novelty item and I'm not thinking about a stock right now. Maybe later.

I have a Browning Hi Power with the slot in the backstrap for a stock. If you buy one vintage with a stock it is legal, from what I've read, but if you own the pistol, and buy a stock separately you need the federal stamp.

Like the sawed off copy of the 'rifle' on Wanted Dead Or Alive, it is considered a handgun, but if you sawed one off yourself .......... you're toast.

Depends on the age of the pistol, whether it's an NFA firearm or not.

Also, regarding a 'sawed off shotgun'...the GCA has the verbiage of '...smooth bore...'

That's not the pic you posted, originally. You initially posted a 5" Gov't model length barrel.

Correct but he was going to add a 16" barrel to the 1911. Since I couldn't find a picture of a 1911 with a stock and a 16" barrel I showed this as a 1911 with carbine upper.

You mean like this?

That is nutz!
Just buy a rifle!

waka waka!

Got a few early christmas gifts a few weeks back.
XD mod 2 4in. 9mm so far put 150 rounds through. This is a pleasure to shoot.

Ruger AR556. Unfortunately I've had no time to take this one out. I have put a few magpul goodies on it. MOE SL hand guard and butt stock, Viking tactical 2 point sling and a UTG red/green dot. Looking at some range time next week, expecting good things from this budget AR.

Maybe santa will leave some ammo under the tree[emoji6] .

Merry Christmas
Phil
