It was only a matter of time before I started an AR build  to sit along my Colt HBAR. I have most of the components ordered, but currently stuck on the minefield of NJ laws.

 

I would like to order this barrel and brake from the manufacturer:

and buttstock from a LGS:

If I'm reading the laws correctly, since the barrel is threaded I need the muzzle brake pinned or welded to make me legal? I'm already aware the buttstock has to be pinned as well. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Yep..brake has to be pinned and welded...and stock also has to be pinned...if YHM cant do the pin and weld on the barrel there are a plethora of shops and FFLS that can do it for ya..the stock isnt that hard and can be done with a drill and a punch..

yes ... but if its pinned and shipped to ya, you arent getting a gas block on that ;-)

Sure you can, that's what two piece gas blocks are for.

I have yhm two-pieces on two of my builds, it a great thing. they also make a low profile two piece call the specter

I'm thinking of getting a 2 piece to replace a railed block. I want to do a ff handguard

The parts arrived the other day and I assembled the upper over the weekend. I dropped the upper at Ottomanelli's yesterday and they are going to pin and weld it. While that is getting worked on, I am completing the lower and should be completed by tonight. 

 

Once everything is back, pictures will follow shortly. 

I just replaced the crowned barrel on my Car-15 with a 14.5" one with one of those 5M1's on the end... Thing looks nasty now. I sure don't ever wanna be on the business end of it. I also just finished a build where I used one of those w/ the non-aggressive tips, and it works beautifully. They're great brakes, you'll be happy with it once it's together.

Can't wait to see the pics! Let us know how that barrel works out!
