I'm interested in switching a 16" AR carbine into a 14.5" carbine. Since my 16" carbine is essentially a 14.5" carbine with an extra 1.5" on the end of the barrel, I'm thinking that cutting the barrel is an easy way to accomplish this goal.
Can I simply tack weld a flash hider onto a sub-16" barrel in order to satisfy NFA requirements? Is there a way that I can cut down a rifle barrel (separate from the lower) and then weld the flash hider on without being in possession of an SBR during the construction process (i.e, after I cut the barrel but before I weld on the flash hider)?
