Decisions, Decisions !!

#1 Post by breacher »

Some of you will have seen my little compact .22 AR

http://www.full-bore.co.uk/viewtopic.ph ... 88&start=0

24.5" OAL with titanium PDW butt ( only one from this particular manufacturer in UK ) and bespoke integral titanium suppressor.

Well, I am moving to USA and initial enquiries reveal I need one $500 tax stamp for it being a short barrelled rifle. And I am awaiting a decision from BATF on whether the integral suppressor requires a further $500 tax stamp.

I would pay the one stamp but paying two is stretching it a bit ! And $1000 would get me something very nice there in terms of a pistol etc

What to do ???

I concur, get it sold, not worth the bother with so many shiny new toys on the other side of the pond to peruse.
