My Stag Arms (post ban) has a standard M4 adjustable stock on it.
It actually has no "pin" but rather just a threaded screw. So I'm wondering if a threaded screw is enough to satisfy the legal neutering of these stocks.
I have a few AR's to build and wanted to use different stocks and "pin" or semi-permanently fix them in a position. Perhaps threading it would work?
The question: If you drilled and tapped the buffer tube, removed the lever for adjustment and used a threaded screw, would it be in compliance?
The way they (Stag) "pinned" it was:
1. The buffer tube did not have any holes for the normal stocks. It was completely flat.
2. They replaced the screw in the normal collapsable stock with a threaded screw. The lever no longer works at all.
3. They drilled 1 hole in the buffer tube and threaded it making it only 1 position.
4. The extended the length of the buffer tube so that if you unscrewed the set screw (pin) and tried to shorten the length of the stock, the buffer tube itself would poke out the back.
