Is there a way to "permanently" attach an upper to a lower?

Featured Replies

Hypothetically, you have 2 AR's, a normal run-of-the-mill NJ compliant AR and one of these goofy looking NY compliant AR's w/o the pistol grip. Since you're in NJ, on the NY AR you have a flash hider/threaded muzzle because you don't have the pistol grip counting as your "evil feature." However, being in possession of both at the same time is a no-no since the NY AR's upper can come off and be put on the NJ AR to readily make an "assault weapon."

 

Is there a way to permanently attach a lower to an upper so this would not be an issue?

 

 

weld only the front take down pin in like a mushroom? this way you can still remove rear and open it to work on it

what does NY have to do with it? If you had a NY compliant lower even a NJ compliant upper wouldn't be allowed in NY if it had a pinned brake

I'm not talking about taking it into NY. This hypothetical scenario is taking place entirely in NJ. This is if you had a NY compliant lower in NJ as a NJ resident.

This is along the lines of what I was thinking. I was picturing turning the front take down pin into something almost like a dumbbell, where you cant take it out.

A custom made longer pivot pin pushed down like a rivet would do the "barbel" thing.

 

What about building one of the sets on one of those Colt HBAR upper/lower combos with the larger pivot pin holes

Oh.

Is the NY stock a viable option in NJ? If I get it, does this allow me another feature? Or is it like the California-bullet-button, untested here?

"Pistol grip" is defined. If you feel the NY stock doesn't fit the definition you should be fine. Most haven't tested it because a pistol grip is pretty nice.

Instead of permanently attaching the upper to the lower - wouldn't it be easier just to replace the FH with a permanently attached brake?

The NY stock was an example. What I really want to build is something with the Ares SCR lower/stock or a single shot SPR.

Because I can. All my AR's have pinned/welded brakes on them. If I build something with the Ares SCR lower, then I can legally have a FH, so I want one. lol

 

Awesome, gonna have to give this a try when I get around to this project!
