I coughed up the extra $200 to put it on a form 1. Some say a little rediculous since I have no plans on actually shortening the barel but well worth it to me for the look acheived. (Thanks for pointing that out scottoe.)Boomer,
did you use the necessary u.s. made parts, seeing that when you cut the stock and essentially make a pistol grip, ATF usually considers this not fit for "sporting purposes". I was thinking of doing the same thing. I wanted to keep the 10 rd capacity, but swap the original thumbhole stock with a G36 one and add a G36 lower, just for looks. Everyone told me it not compliant because of the above.
Let me know.

I used the G36 rails, purchased them from ML security products(vendor from this site)Which side rails did you use on the foreend?
Boomer, looks like what I plan to do with mine but using a Leupold Mk4 MR/T 1.5x5. How did you do the hand grip and if glued what did you use.
