hobbiesguy Posted August 22, 2022 at 07:12 PM Share Posted August 22, 2022 at 07:12 PM I'm looking for a conversion kit for my Taurus and liked the Gen 2 Micro Conversion kit with the regular folding stock. Live in Illinois, Cook county but outside and away from Chicago but with the specs I'm still confused about whether this turns my little G2C into a geneva convention banned super rifle, per Illinois laws. Can someone actually tell me if it's still legal? I would like to just be able to convert my gun instead of getting a riffle, although seems that may be easier to get for now. Thanks!

illinois_buckeye Posted August 22, 2022 at 09:05 PM Share Posted August 22, 2022 at 09:05 PM For a little more might look at this. https://www.extarusa.com/ Guy at work (I work in Missouri) has one and loves it. He said his Bro in law is an mp and took his apart down to the atoms as he put it and said he was pretty impressed. The Bro in law apparently owns one now. If you look on YouTube a channel called honest outlaw did a review a few days ago. I think he said he’s got 3000-4000 rounds through it and likes it.

As an SBR, you'll need a federal C&R license in IL, so it's legal under those conditions at the state level. Since you live in Cook County, I believe you'll need to check your local ordinances to see if your municipality overrides the county ban. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would guess that the conversion kit itself is not subject to NFA regulations until it is attached to your pistol. I would imagine they sell these like any other non regulated gun accessory and it is up to you to do your due diligence before installing it. I suspect that a phone call or email to CKS Tactical would clear up any confusion on how they regard this accessory and if you have to have approval to buy it.

I emailed them days ago, tracking says they opened the email but so far no reply. Given how non-sense things are with local, county and state laws, I'm thinking going straight to a full fledged rifle and skip the circus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just get the one with the "arm brace" which is perfectly legal (for now) and can function identically to regular stock if you choose to shoulder it.

Benbow Posted August 24, 2022 at 01:14 AM Share Posted August 24, 2022 at 01:14 AM This falls into the category of "maybe" and for who. If the overall length is 26 inches or more, ATF says its legal and will approve paperwork for reeneactors, C&R holders and cops. If the overall length is less than 26 inches, ATF will not approve, except to cops, though I think ATF wrong. I've got a DJ action on file to declare that less than 26 inch SBRs are OK with C&R FFL, but its early in the case Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
