AR-15 – Midwest Ind. AR-15 Pistol Buffer Tube

Can you have a angled foregrip on an ar pistol?

Excellent video. What weight buffer or brand name do you recommend for use in AR pistols? Thanks

could you tell me the length of the tube from the think part back? I'm looking at the SBM4 to see it that will fit flush.

I was informed that the NRA declares any upper over 10.5 inches to be considered a rifle.

NSZ85 did you ever get did your tax stamp back ? If so how long did it take also did the ATF tell you that your SBR lower had to be engraved thanks. PS I like your vids

so if i buy a striped virgin lower from dealer its registered as a other and if i pistol it with short barrel under 16" i legally can use a normal tube just as long as i dont have a stock on it or present??

i just throw my huge dick over my right shoulder and rest the buffer tube on it so no shoulder touch.

Can we just shoulder the tube?

Great Vid.
For accuracy. There are no castle nuts on an AR. Castle nuts have cotter pins that go through them. These are spanner nuts. The wrench to turn them is a spanner wrench.
Also try brass hammers. A ball peen hammer has a rounded face to make malleable metal move sense the word ball. The peen is the little round part on the hammer.
Thanks for a great job.

Great video!

I probably got this buffer tube from MI about the same time as you, and I havent used it yet. I have a 30blk project that I was thinking of using it on. Just need to get a handguard for it.

thanks for the intel !!!!   rockon brother

where did ya get the multi tool from?

Might need to update this video since the BATFE outlawed shouldering the Sig Brace.

Knock off of KAK Super Sig tube. Buy the original, KAK Industries.

Anyone know what muzzle break that is? I really like the look of it.

Nate,  As always … Good stuff!!

Here is my question. I have a 16in upper on my ar15 right now. And it has the typical butt stock. Now what I'm curious about is if I can put the sb15 arm brace on my rifle and once it is installed can I switch out my rifle upper for a pistol upper and still be legal since my"rifle" won't ever have an actual butt stock on it when it's in rifle form. Or is that a no no?

ty for the video you made my decision on what tube to get.

i never understood shorter tubes with pistols when its the same bullet and the same bolt group moving back and forth how they thought a shorter tube would work is beyond me ill stick with a millspec tube and standard spring.

Great video!
Do you have any problems with the brace twisting after a bit of shooting?

I personally think the Sig brace is ugly and unnecessary. The recoil is so little on an AR pistol I like just the buffer tube. The brace is just a fad that will burn out when guys figure out their pistol is more maneuverable without that clunky brace. Having said that, I really love the longer tubes being built to accommodate the Sig brace. On a normal size pistol buffer tube (7") my nose hits the charging handle. The extra two inches longer buffer tubes make it perfect for me.

Wow. Nice build. Almost exactly what I'd like to build.

How far back does the sig brace sit with this set up? Is it similar to 1 click back on a traditional rifle, 2 clicks back, or fully pushed forward? Thanks in advance

Is that brace designed to slip over your forearm? It looks like you could reach through it to the grip and trigger but I have yet to see anyone do that in a video

Dumb question as I am new and looking to build a pistol ar- but do you need the Sig brace for it to be considered a pistol?  If you by pass the Sig brace and just use the buffer tube does the buffer tube then classify it as a rifle?

how do you like your noveski hider?

Awesome channel. I subscribed. I recently won an AR15 pistol and was doing research on the KAK buffer tube and found yoyr video. You didnt say it in the video but does the KAK not fit flush with a Sig brace? Btw check out my channel if you havent already. Thanks for tge video.

Where I am not a big fan of the AR pistol…anyone who does an MI Video is a Friend of mine…Great Vid…Target On…

Your videos have the best production quality and information, I love them all. Thank you for all the hard work it must take to make such an excellent product.

One correction to your video – it is federally legal have a vertical foregrip if the over all length of the pistol is over 26". 
>26" w/vfg = "Firearm" – neither a handgun or a long gun
>26" w/out vfg = Pistol
<26" w/vfg = AOW
<26" w/out vfg = Pistol
The 26" length comes in from the ATF definition of what is a "concealable" length. There is an ATF letter that explains the above as well.

Will the Sig brace fit on most pistol buffer tubes or do they need to be specific 

Have you used that backup iron sight yet? If so how do you like it? I've been thinking about getting the same backup sight myself.

Thanks for another great video. A stripped lower can be either rifle or pistol? Can it be changed to the other legally or is paperwork required? Can a rifle be changed to a pistol if set up correctly?

I'm a huge fan, I've learned a lot watching your videos. Just for fun can you do a video of your entire gun collection?! That would be awesome!

You haven't been using your Aeroshell for your last couple of builds.

Does the sig brace fit tighter on this tube compared to the kak?

Which muzzle brake/ suppressor do you recommend after that…I'll get brake first…I've been researching a little

Awsome. I can get a DD MK 18 upper. Put my AFG on it. Get a sig brace , MI pistol buffer tube (when in stock 162.00 )Put them on one of my lowers. Temporarily…lol… Instead of buying something THEN waiting on the ok from ATF ( money tied up ) have this in hand for use then when "all cleared" I can change back to proper tube, buttstock. If I'm thinking right.

How do you like that MaTech Backup Iron Sight?

Hello NSZ85. Since you seem to have a lot of experience, I wish to ask if you think building an AR-15 from the Billet Ambi lower from Mega and using the MKM Keymod handguard and billet upper receiver is a good choice?

can you do a video on how to install a barrel on a receiver that has the rail built in? 

Very nice, and anything Mega I'm a massive fan of. Very high quality.

Just one question, why would you make a "pistol" instead of a rifle, like are there pros to building a pistol, and what makes on a pistol and another a rifle?

Which bubble level do you have on the black out?
Edit: nvm, just saw it is Megas ILS!!

So if I lived in some pretty isolated place I could technically attach the stock?

Nice video.  I was wondering about the MI buffer tube.  It looks really nice.

Just an FYI, the KAK buffer tubes for the Sig brace also extend to the end of the brace.

Thanks for the info, it will be helpful when I start my 300blk pistol build. Any recommendations for 300blk pistol barrel length?
