The case hardening can be easily cut through with separating discs or small grindstones. Diamond files will also easily cut it.
-
It's difficult to tell from the pictures, but the gun actually appears to be nickeled instead of chromed.
Either is a much better finish than parkerizing or bluing-but I understand wanting an original finish.

I thought you were talking about the M2 carbine. Sorry.

Roy Clark was a musician's musician. I would be honored to own his Thompson.
For what it's worth- I rebuilt Jerry Garcia's switchblade.

Your stock was made by Bianchi.
I would not advise trying to cut it for a Universal carbine.
I have an Iver Johnson Enforcer pistol I'm thinking about SBR-ing. I would love to have that stock to do so.Is it for sale?

I don't understand how a 5.56 caliber, a rifle caliber, firearm with less than a 16" barrel can constitute a "pistol" with a "pistol brace." If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck it's a duck. It's a SBR IMO. Same thing with "pistol" shotguns with less than 18" barrels.
Sorry you can't understand how the law works.

A 28 Ga. barrel is over .50 caliber. You can't just rifle it and make the gun legal.
You can sleeve the barrel permanently and chamber it for rifled .410.
-
Perhaps it was a very late one, or a custom order.
-
Is this gun marked as an Auto-Burglar?
-
Blood is acidic. It removes bluing immediately and if left on steel causes pitting.
You have rust spots.

WD-40 SOAK. It will remove bluing from any part. I put mine in a ultrasonic and ran it a few times, then let it sit overnight..
That's absurd! WD 40 will not remove, or even harm bluing!
-
It's been rounded at the top.
-
Has the grip been altered?
-
A 20 Ga. is over .50 cal. It would be classed as a destructive device.
-
I believe you have to send the weapon to ATF, not pictures.

All GI carbines were made during WW2.

I was scammed out of $15 for a Rahseed magazine that I paid for using PP gift. PP told me there were no protections of any kind when PP gift is used. They did not go after the scammer. Never again.
It wasn't a gift- it was a PURCHASE.
Like I said- everybody wants to screw Paypal out of their fees.

Comes back to bite you.

The guns in question are handguns so with the light rifling they would become AOWs, and require NFA registration, subject to Title II transfer requirements but with only a $5 transfer tax. They do not become DDs or SBSs.
Sorry- your post makes no sense, Or I'm misunderstanding.
Only AOWs under .50 caliber can be rifled to remove them from the NFA.
Removing the barrels, however (and disposing of them) removes the gun from the purview of the NFA.

ATF in recent years has been very helpful in trying to solve the issue of no person legally eligible to sign the paperwork. In several instances with which I was involved, ATF allowed a beneficiary to sign the application for transfer out of the nane of the deceased owner. The persons involved were designated beneficiaries of the estate and not necessarily specfically for the NFA firearms.
Keep in mind two things: frst, this is a property issue for an item that belongs to the estate, so there is potential interest by other beneficiaries who will have probate standing; second, ATF has no authority concerning the property issue and is strictly limited to compliance with NFA rules.
Apparently the name of the deceased registrant is known, which is a huge advantage. The main problem with these types of limbo NFA is that often the name of the registrant is not known and ATF cannot legally divulge that information.
The current method of dealing with unregistered auto burglers, etc, and I understand that the gun in question is registered, is to have a gunsmith very lightly engrave rifling into the bore. This renders the gun a handgun thus no longer an AOW and removes it from NFA control. Once this done the gun can be transferred in the same manner as a revolver, pistol or other type of handgun.
So, making this gun legal to transfer and own will take a lot of groundwork and contact with ATF if you can find a person eligible to sign the transfer.
If not the other option might be the way to go.
Hope this helps
You can only rifle guns that are under .50 caliber. This would not include any 28, 20, 16, or 12 ga. guns.
-
You can not rifle an Auto Burglar gun and make it a pistol, as it is still over .50 caliber.
You can, however do this with the various .410 pistols.

Iver Johnsons ARE Plainfields. IJ bought Plainfield.
You would have to modify the front of a standard carbine stock to mount the Enforcer action.
There were no M2 Universal Enforcers. All Universal Enfrocers were semi only. Plainfield and IJ made M2 Enforcers.

Strangely, the forend iron seems to be chrome plated, or just polished steel.

Does anyone know if Bren magazines will work in Enfield rifles? I remember hearing they would.
And, if so where might one look for Bren magazines?
Thanks!
