Hey Guys, I just built my first ever AR-15. I Just need to order the gas tube and gas block. I am not quite sure which tube i need to order. Apparently they come in 3 lengths. (Carbine, Rifle and Mid).
My Gun is made of: - Stag A2 Flash Hider - Stag 14.5 Inch Mp 5.56 Barrel - Stag Barrel Nut - Stag/Samson MFG Star-C Rail/Hand-guard - Stag 5.56 Stripped Lower Receiver - Magpul CTR Adjustable Stock - Battle Grip Tactical Hand-Guard Grip - Bottle Grip For Lower Receiver - Complete Rock River Arms Lower Parts Kit (Single Stage Trigger) - Stag Complete Bolt Carrier Assembly - Magpul - P30 PMAG's - Stag A3 Flat Top Upper - Stag Buffer Tube + Spring - Stag Charging Handle (Sorry for listing so many parts i just didn't know what you need to know to determines the length of the tube) I'm going to order: - PRI Gas Block With Top Picatinny Rail ( http://www.bravocompanyusa.com/PRI-Gas-Block-With-Top-Picatinny-Rail-p/pri%2005-075-04%20gas%20block.htm ) (Unless any one has any other suggestions ) THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP!

| I would recommend removing that upper ASAP and doing some research on your local/federal gun laws. Not trying to be a dick but you basically have an SBR in possesion and could face up to 10 years in prison and $250k in fines. Minimum barrel length for a rifle is 16", anything less is considered a short barreled rifle. |
| Really? I had no idea. I'm looking up CT gun laws and The only actual CT state law that I know concerning barrel length is Ch. 529 Sec. 29-27, which states that any firearm with a barrel less than 12 inches is classified as a pistol or revolver. THANKS FOR THE CONCERN THO. I'm gonna keep looking around. Ill get a new barrel if that one is illegal. |

Hi all,
This is my first reply to a post, I’ve been lurking for a few months and this one got my attention. I'm also in Connecticut like the OP. In CT flash hiders or suppressors are on the list of "evil features" and therefore illegal. A compensator or muzzle brake is good to go but must be permanently installed using a method such as pinning and welding. Give a call to the guys at JoJo's Gunworks in Southington they are "Stag Guys" and should be able to help you out. Please refer to the following: http://www.jud.ct.gov/lawlib/Law/firearms.htm Good luck with your project. |

That's a 16. You're perfectly legal. Apparently some people here don't bother looking at the picture you posted. |
