Form 1 question

[kevinj110]

On form 1 space 4f for the overall length for the gun. How do you all measure it on an AR with the stock all the way to its longest setting or shortest. Also do you include what ever muzzle device you use on it in the measurement? Thanks sorry if this has come up before.

Measure with collapsible stock fully extended.

This ^^^^^

And I did not count the muzzle adapter as mine can be removed.

Yeah, I think the rule of thumb is that you only count the muzzle device if it's permanently attached. That's why a 14.5" AR with a welded 1.5" flash hider is considered 16" and not an SBR.

Thanks for the answers guy I wanted to be sure. Also just a thought what about if I went from using a Magpul CTR that measures just under 14in when full extended to using a UBR which is just over 11inches fully extended. Would this be a problem or am I just over thinking it?

Type of stock doesn't matter. Only that whatever length you put down on the form - you have to be able to make it that length again if you ever change it. You can change it all you want as long as you keep the original pieces to change it back.

When it comes to this stuff, over-thinking things isn't necessarly bad.
