Is the scope on the end of the barrel on purpose or am I missing something

I believe it's called the scout scope configuration. It makes it so that the scope takes up less of your vision.

Well, it's a pistol. That barrel length on a rifle would be big time illegal.

Not really. 14 5" barrel with a 1.5" compensater = 16" and its a rifle. Has a collapsible stock. But that sight is on the wrong end of the barrel. You want it as closr to the receiver as possible. I have several ars in 7",9", 14", 16 and a8" barrels. Building a 20" now. Anything under 16" has to have a fixed stock or registered as a sbr(short barreled rifle) which is just a $200 tax stamp and an ok from the government.

As an avid gun owner myself, I don't like your simplified explanations. Especially the SBR part. You know just as well as I do that it's not that simple lol.

True, but even the atf cant explain a sbr. Simplified answer because it fits. Also wish we could edit comments cause my spelling was atrocious. I wish the atf made things simpler, i just sold a 10" 300 blackout ar because stock was way to short for my 6'2" frame and wasn't registering it to put different stock on it.

I wish the atf didn't exist but I feel you

Yea, they are worthless. $300 and 6 mth wait just to be able to add a suppressor to save my hearing. Most of the alphabet boys are useless

Nice analysis by some of you! It's a nerf gun spray painted black, and I couldn't get the scope all the way on because it's a cheap piece of plastic. Fuck it, it's a Halloween costume, it'll do.

They don’t know what they’re doing. There is no legitimate reason to do this.
