The BATFE site says if the barrel is over 16" and the gun is over 26", there's no problem. Here's the cut off M10 stock, with a grip bolted and glued on, and with lead shot in epoxy in the stock, then with a 30X Lyman STS scope. More work was done on the grip, pix to follow.

At those lengths it's not classified as a pistol anymore...
It was and will still be a rifle.

Correct.
See the pix on the specialty pistols site. Some of those are/look like short rifles.
I have 22" barrel in 308, on the gun now.
I like this pseudo-pistol a lot. I ONLY shoot from the bench.
I like it so much, I'm thinking of selling my Striker.
As work progresses, I'll post more pix-if anyone is interested.

No matter what anybody says about using a "rifle action" to build a pistol, if the barrel is "at least" 16" long and the OAL of the rig is at least 26", the bottom line is it's still a rifle! 8) And it doesn't have to be a "designated" action! It's still a rifle! ;D
Yup, but it is more fun to shoot.Quote:

I'm thinking about selling the blue Striker in 308 with a 22-250 bbl also, and buying a Simmons target scope and a barrel. John Ardito wrote about shooting a barrel with a 40X action on each end. Would a barrel chambered ex. 300 blkout on one end and 7.62 X 39 on the other end, both ends threaded for small shank make sense??? I shoot 99% cast bullets, 100 yards, targets only. 'd need a threaded protector for the other end. This all for the M10 pistol. Any bads on the 300 blackout?
Thanks;

7.62x39 = .311 bore (traditionally so be careful if you buy factory ammo)
300 Blk/30-221/300 Whisper = .308 bore
Other than that...nope
FWIW: I have a Savage 7.62x39. It has a .308 bore. I've shot both .308 handloads and .311 factory loads through it with no trouble at all.Quote:

On the other hand, I really like your out of the box thinking about a double-ended barrel. I say, "Go for it!" :D
one for each side of the equator!

I think a more clever guy than I could make the plastic Savage stocks so that a hand grip for
pseudo-pistol and/or shoulder stock for rifle could be attached.
