Considering selling my 16” AR’s and replacing with 14.5” m4 “pistols”.

I'm glad you asked...


In a court case known as "Chevron Deference" back in 1984, the SCOTUS ruled that the government agency has the right to interpret and adjudicate it's own rulings for it's own regulations it writes. So, the judiciary branch ruled that the executive branch can make, interpret, and hold hearings about it's own rules instead of taking shit to the courts to determine if lawful or not.

So much for separation of powers.....

Another interesting ruling.

Separation of powers has been gone for quite some time, there is another interesting court case that I still would love to see some 2nd amendment foundation take up, but none of them seem interested.

" A State may not impose a charge for the enjoyment of a right granted by the Federal Constitution. P. 319 U. S. 113."

It may not be enough to in the federal background check system, however any state that requires a permit or a license that you have to pay for in order to purchase, or carry a firearm is void.

Murdock v. Pennsylvania, 319 U.S. 105 (1943)

Murdock v. Pennsylvania: It is unconstitutional for a state to tax people selling religious merchandise.

Definitely not worth it in my opinion to only drop 1.5" of barrel. If you want 14.5 I would pick a handguard and muzzle device you'll want to keep long-term and just pin/weld to get 16" overall.

Theres a place for AR pistols but really only if you go significantly shorter. I have 2 of them...a 7.5" and an 11.5". The 7.5" is fun from a concussion / muzzle blast / fireballs sort of way, but that's it. It may be suitable as a short range PDW but its really a range toy for me.

The 11.5" is a great length. The Carbine length gas and SBA4 brace make it a seriously useable weapon and has enough barrel to achieve acceptable velocities. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this to someone looking for a shorty AR15.
