so i purchased an Intratec Tec-9.
anyone on /k/ own one and have modified it? sure would love to put a collapsible stock on it or any optic but it doesnt look like it lends itself easily to either.

Assuming you aren't a troll if you put a stock on it then it becomes an NFL item, same goes if you put a vertical foreground on it.
Just leave it as is and enjoy your new range toy.
>>29358842
no im not trolling. i understand that more than one vertical grip on a pistol puts you under nfa but i wasnt aware of adding a buttstock...
arent there AR builds that qualify as pistols but have a wire stock?
>>29358842
NFL item
>>29358775
are you the guy, who asked inna thread before if he should buy a tec 9 and suddenly a victim of the colombine shooting showed up?
>>29358907
no, im a guy that likes to impulse buy guns.
>>29358907
I am sure he wasn't a victim of columbine.
>>29358884
Please retype that coherently
i can understand it
>>29358884
>i understand that more than one vertical grip on a pistol puts you under nfa
Uhh... no, it only takes one vertical foregrip to make it an NFA item.
>>29358775
Putting a stock on any pistol or rifle with a barrel length under 16" makes it an SBR, an NFA item. Or if you put a vertical foregrip on it, that makes it an AOW, an NFA item as well. Illegal without ATF approval, registration, and a $200 tax stamp.

That's not a wire stock, that's the buffer tube. It functions as an extension of the receiver. The bolt flies back inside of that thing when the gun fires and an internal buffer and spring push it back into battery,
>>29359114
nfa stamp really does not matter i am qualified within a trust, so if i do something to sbr the tec-9 i will sell the gun to the trust, etc. i didnt know about the stock though, thanks i have to sell another gun i have.
>>29359126
i know what a buffer tube is. i was only using the pic to refer to carbines classifid as pistol that have a stock. like an under folder
i am not asking about legality of the weapon. i was just curious if anyone else here has done things to their tec-9?
i am not interested in altering the function of the gun, but i would like to change the form of it. if that means it becomes a classIII then it can be dealt with.
>>29359218
Underfolder AKs are not classified as pistols. A rifle is always a rifle, it can never not be a rifle even if you permanently remove the stock and weld up the holes used to mount one.
Pistols can be made into a rifle by attaching a stock, but can become a pistol again by removing the stock.
The AR you posted for instance is a pistol, yes, because it has no stock. Attach a stock however and it becomes a rifle.
>>29359260
so, attaching a stock to a pistol makes it a rifle, yes?
are you still implying that this requires the extra licensing still? as attaching a stock to this tec-9 would make it a rifle and classify it as a sbr
>>29359361
Yes.
Also, having the stock and the pistol at the same time without having it first approved will land you in prison for "constructive intent."
>>29359243
I dont think wire stocks exist for tec9s, only their predecessors, pic related
>>29359444
ugh. i saw that photo earlier. very nice.
>>29359260
>Pistols can be made into a rifle by attaching a stock, but can become a pistol again by removing the stock.
Once a rifle, always a rifle.
>>29358974
He posted proof you fag.
>>29358907
>>29358974
>>29360680
If he was really a victim of Columbine then how would he be posting from the grave? It was obviously fake proofs.
>>29360680
>highschool yearbook from columbine
>proof
>>29358775
Why did you not get one of the FA Open bolt tec-9s that are not NFA
>>29359529
Only if it starts as a rifle.
Pistols can become a rifle, and a pistol again (according to law)
A rifle cannot ever be a pistol, only a short rifle.
>>29359444
> dat stock

>>29361101
rip to that mans dog
>>29359529
add 16+" barrel, then stock. Now it's a rifle. Take away stock, then put the short barrel back on or leave the long one for shits and giggles. Now it's a pistol again. Changing them back and forth is fine, but if the short barrel is on with a stock it becomes a super scary 2cool4school SBR, oh no, oh shit, oh fuck.
>>29358775
You could put an arm brace on it and run around like a ghetto mega man. ziptie a laser pointer to the barrel shroud, it probably won't be any shittier than the regular sights.
>>29363530
The G-BUSTER
>>29359444
That thing looks like it will blow your fingers off
>>29363593
Looks like it's threaded at least. It'd be better with a barrel extension or suppressor on it
