Five seveN on FPSRUSSIA

From the NFA handbook:

However, certain alterations to a pistol or revolver, such as the addition of a second vertical handgrip, create a weapon that no longer meets the definition of pistol or revolver. A pistol or revolver modified as described is an “any other weapon” subject to the NFA because the weapon is not designed to be fired when held in one hand.

Hey Y'all: OK I will express my ignorance on this whole issue of AOW etal, but how in the world can a lousy "extended handle" (and that is all it is) on an existing handgun that is not being modified, be anything other than a "handle"? How does it all of a sudden become some kind of terrible death instrument? This is positively insane. My initial question was prompted by the video where I perceived an opportunity to be able to hold the 57 more stable and, perhaps, enjoy its use at the longer distance for shooting hobby sake.

Your error is assuming that all gun laws make sense ....

Gun laws are stupid.

Can't put a grip on a pistol unless it's
a AOW but I'm sure he's a class II or III dealer
I love his videos

It is illegal to put a grip on a pistol. It is like applying to the ATF for a class 3 weapon if you do it. Seeing all the kni of weapons he shows on his videos, I have no doubt he has the licenses for it. Also, he probably is very rich too and yes he is not really Russian.

He doesn't have an FFL last I checked, but he does work for one, and is probably how he has access to all of the firearms he does. I'm sure the individual who owns/operates the firearm business is somewhere on premise when he does these videos.

It's not like applying to the ATF if you do, it's like a Federal Felony if you do. It's a violation of the NFA.

Apply for the tax stamp, then add the grip after you receive approval.

My misquote. Thanks!
