So these will be 14"?
It's hard to be a ACLU hating, philosophically Libertarian, socially liberal, fiscally conservative, scientifically grounded, agnostic, porn admiring gun owner who believes in self determination.

Ok cool. Technically I already have one I guess.

They need to bring in one with a 14.5 threaded bbl then we could pin and weld and have a title I rifle.
Also they need quality 922r parts

Shooting sight makes a nice tool steel EDM hammer and sear. The 556 piston and trigger are compatible with the 551. We really need US magazines (ahem, Magpul can you hear this....please) or at least followers and floorplates. The 550 and 551 with integral FH need 5 US parts. The 552/553 with removable FH need 6 US parts.

I don't personally count the cocking handle as an op rod. That nomenclature was designed to target the norinco m14 semis. The m14 op rod is truly an op rod. I'm not aware of any publicly available guidance as to what parts they consider on the 922(r) list.
If one did count the cocking handle, the 556 version, which is presumed to be made in the US is an option.

I believe there is a five year limitation on 922r from point of conversion and this generally applies to the manufacturer from my understanding. So basically, even if you added a buttstock while registering it as an SBR or welding on an extension to the barrel bringing it out to 16"- if it is over five years old since say a configuration change, then it doesn't matter either way. If it were me, I'd have the extension added to the barrel and add a brace style stock- keep it for five years in that configuration, then add a regular stock. If someone gives you grief about 922r during that time- point out it's wearing a brace, not a stock. Technically it can be either a pistol or a rifle with a 16" barrel, no minimum barrel requirements for pistols obviously. I think I just invented a 922r loop hole.
The fact that we have to go through this on a right that "shall not be infringed" is ridiculous.
