I have a SIG522 which is basically the same thing as the SIG556, but in .22

If I took the folding stock off, would it be a pistol at that point? Can I legally do that?

Taking a stock off a rifle does not make it a pistol in the legal sense.

But putting a stock on a pistol does in legal terms make it a rifle...and is illegal without the appropriate paperwork.

I'm building an AR pistol right now specifically to fit under a 3/4 length coat.

Well, not RIGHT NOW, but it's sitting back in TX waiting for completion "rlol"

Also planning on picking up a Mini Draco since it will fit in a messenger bag, and an Sub2k as well.

Mini Draco or regular Draco is the route I"ll be going when I eventually build an SBR.

I had a Sub2K. They're fun, interesting guns..but if I'm going to have something that size, I'd prefer it be in a rifle caliber. (My .357 lever gun is the exception...but thats just a nostalgic, fun gun).

So my eventual SBR build will be a Draco with an underfolder stock. :cool:

I don't have any interest in the SBR hassle so I'm not going that route. I subscribe to the mostly European (old school) style of using a taught sling for stabilization instead of a buttstock with smaller firearms like this... makes the gun a little more maneuverable, though less useful at long range... but if I'm carrying a rifle like that under a coat, in a bag or in my car, it's doubtful I'd be using it to snipe enemies a few hundred yards away (that's what the M82A1 in the backseat is for!) ;-)

I like the S2K mainly because it folds and will share mags with my Glocks.

Don't get me wrong, I liked the S2k. Shot well, was light and handy.

I just tried to figure out when I would carry it/keep it in a bag close by....and couldn't think of a situation where I'd feel the need to deploy it that I wouldn't feel MORE comfortable deploying something in a rifle caliber...thus my decision to go the draco route eventually as probably the smallest rifle caliber package available to me.

I'd really like to go the SBR/SBS route, but the fact that you can't transport them across state lines without an ATF permission slip makes it a pain in the butt more than I care to deal with. That plus the small but possible chance of me needing to move to a non-NFA state someday. My SUB-2000 is my dedicated carry gun for when I visit family in upstate NY, of all things :mrgreen:
