Finally! My SBR is together. (Pics) - XDTalk Forums - Your HS2000/SA-XD Information Source!

Well, I started the paperwork in June or July, but it's finally together. I still don't have iron sights so I threw on a red dot I had, and I think I'll put on a better flash hider but you get the idea. I'll take better pics when it stops being 60 degrees outside and gets back down to normal.

that's awesome... what's the bbl?

Polymerhead · 01-05-2008, 11:49 AM

7.5" with a low-profile gas block and A2 flash hider for now.

SBRs are cool. There's no doubt about that.

Hopefully I'll have pictures of mine shortly... Just waiting on the damned stamp.

That looks like a fun little gun.

Congratulations Polymerhead. Welcome to the Club.

I'm on my second SBR stamp and find myself wanting a Tactical Innovations suppressor to go with one of them.

Don't let anyone fool you, NFA is as bad as BRD

Thanks John, I'm jealous of those of you who can obtain suppressors. They're not welcome in Missouri. Full-auto and SBR/SBS guns are ok though...

I don't even have the paperwork yet because I'm still in the decision stage of which I want, though the Tactical Innovations Tac-16 will likely be the one because I'll have the option of using it for .223 and also .22LR since I can take a steel brush and take care of the lead deposits the 22LR will leave on the baffles. Of the major brands, it's the only one that is user servicable (to a point).

I've been in contact with YHM, Advanced Armament, and Tactical Innovations and all 3 seem like reputable companies with good communication, but I like the features of the TI the best.

I'm hoping to have the paperwork started within the next 6 weeks or so and within the next 3 months have it on a barrel. You know how the NFA branch likes to drag their feet in signing the forms.

So how cold does it have to be for you to take a good picture? You are sooo weird.
