Meh.  Its worth the premium paid to not have to:
1) Ask for permission
2) Wait up to a year to get permission
3) In asking for permission, also grant permission for them to come by at ANY time to inspect it sans warrant
4) Be restricted in how it can be carried (aka - i can legally carry my AR pistol in the car, but could not an SBR)
5) Be restricted in how it can be used (many states allow pistol hunting, but wont allow an SBR to be used)
6) Be restricted in how it can be transferred (woo!  i can sell again without asking permission)
7) Fund an organization bent on restricting my rights as a citizen

Certainly am interested in this getup.  Not a fan of the buttstock, but if the "loophole" isn't related to that, maybe it would be legal to change it later..

I hope its actually something cool, not a gay rimfire with rearward set barrel or something similar.

Quoted:
According to the NFA an SBR is any firearm with a buttstock that has a rifled barrel of less than sixteen inches, or an overall length of less than twenty six inches. The total length is measured in the extended position.

If this is the correct verbiage of the ATF, then the key word in all of that is "OR".

The barrel  is less than 16 inches, but the overall length when stock is fully extended is over 26 inches which would keep it from being an SBR.  Right?

Just speculating

Not a lawyer.  I read the actual law and that is my interpretation as well.

Kind of like Canada where a 12”barrel 870 over 26” oal with a buttstock is bear medicine where as in Alaska it would be a big bore handgun.

Hmmm.

Number 3 is a myth. Number 6, you can sell it if you return it to a Non NFA configuration as you would any other firearm.

There's a little more to it than that. I live in Illinois but own property in Missouri where my range is. Wouldn't want to have to write a letter every time I went to the range. Also not everybody has a CLEO that will sign off on a SBR in their state laws even allow for it.

If it is, it could have an integrally suppressed barrel with no tax stamp required too.

But what the hell would you do with an 11.5" muzzleloader?

I don't know what the secret is, but it's gotta be semi-auto, at least.  No way they would sell a muzzleloading AR.

26 U.S. Code § 5845

(c) Rifle
The term “rifle” means a weapon designed or redesigned, made or remade, and intended to be fired from the shoulder and designed or redesigned and made or remade to use the energy of the explosive in a fixed cartridge to fire only a single projectile through a rifled bore for each single pull of the trigger, and shall include any such weapon which may be readily restored to fire a fixed cartridge.

(d) Shotgun
The term “shotgun” means a weapon designed or redesigned, made or remade, and intended to be fired from the shoulder and designed or redesigned and made or remade to use the energy of the explosive in a fixed shotgun shell to fire through a smooth bore either a number of projectiles (ball shot) or a single projectile for each pull of the trigger, and shall include any such weapon which may be readily restored to fire a fixed shotgun shell.

DISCLAIMER: I don't believe this to be the method they're using -- as the trigger group appears to be their standard binary trigger...

How about an inverted trigger break? The gun doesn't fire on the pull, but rather on the release. It'd certainly be trying to shoot it, but that seems capable of escaping the definitions, given the allowance and functionality of the binary triggers.

Already been posted many many times in this thread.  As well as a trigger that doesn't fire until you pull the trigger 2x, which some believe could even go full auto after the second pull without being illegal.

Did some digging and found this patent.

Therefore, a need exists for a new and improved semi-automatic rimfire rifle that converts a semi-automatic rifle from a centerfire caliber to a rimfire caliber while retaining the rifle's original fire control group and lower receiver. In this regard, the various embodiments of the present invention substantially fulfill at least some of these needs. In this respect, the semi-automatic rimfire rifle according to the present invention substantially departs from the conventional concepts and designs of the prior art, and in doing so provides an apparatus primarily developed for the purpose of providing a semi-automatic rimfire rifle that converts a semi-automatic rifle from a centerfire caliber to a rimfire caliber while retaining the rifle's original fire control group and lower receiver.

Could be a rimfire that fires using the rifle's original FCG and lower?

Yes, the ATF used to allow some pistols to have collapsible stocks if pinned or welded in the closed position.

However, it is ruled on a case-by-case variance, and the modularity of the AR platform would make it problematic.
