BuIld an SBR or install a “breakdown” kit? - 12/04/20 12:19 PM
I’m trying to decide between building a 5.56 SBR with a 10.5” barrel, or installing a quick-release barrel mechanism on my 5.56 with a 16” barrel like the Cry Havock from Resistance... (https://americanresistancegear.com/product/cry-havoc-qrb-quick-release-barrel-kit-ar15-only)
I understand I will have to apply for an NFA stamp if I go to the SBR route, but just trying to get some thoughts on which way to go. Yes, the quick-release barrel option is easier (administratively), but the SBR would give me a solid rifle with no mechanical peculiarities (e.g. a joint at the barrel/receiver connection).
Both will accomplish the end goal of having an AR platform that I can transport with minimal profiling; just not sure which route to go. Any thoughts?
