Do you have any opinion on a sec5 dealer using woodscrews to fit a gun cabinet to a wall ?AR15 wrote:Yeah I forgot Brian, anyone you don't like isn't allowed an opinion and has to keep quiet.
Every day is a school day!!! :)AR15 wrote: the original A1 device was a Flash Hider, the A2 (missing holes at the bottom) is a compensator as per the original drawings, it is manufactured as such. Not a flash hider.

Your "quiz" had nothing to do with my stating that a componant has in its own right, no minimum length requirement.
It was nice here, with us all offering our opinions and agreeing to differ. Then you arrived, all ego and frustration.
How can the manufacture of a Sec5aba component be controlled if said component doesn't exist until assembled? A short barrel Sec5aba IS a component part of a Sec5aba firearm and in itself a prohibited weapon.
c. under section 5 of the 1968 Act, it is an offence for a person to possess, purchase,
acquire, MANUFACTURE, sell, transfer, possess for sale or transfer, or purchase or acquire
for sale or transfer, a component part of a prohibited weapon without the authority of
the Secretary of State for the Home Department or by Scottish Ministers in Scotland.
I disgree, the a2 was designed not to have any holes at the bottom, so as to prevent the hot gases from kicking up sand and dust when the shooter is firing from the prone position. This type is seen on many other weapons today , including AKs, SIG etcRarms wrote:Every day is a school day!!! :)AR15 wrote: the original A1 device was a Flash Hider, the A2 (missing holes at the bottom) is a compensator as per the original drawings, it is manufactured as such.

What do DPMS themselves call it?breacher wrote:Well Joe - opinion seems divided on the actual intention of the change in design from A1 to A2. Many agree with you.
And here is one retailer who seems to regard the A2 as a flash hider.........
Component parts defined
The component part of a firearm which is subject to licencing is defined for the first time as follows;
“barrel, chamber or cylinder, a frame, body or receiver, a breech block, bolt or other mechanism for containing the pressure of discharge at the rear of a chamber – but only where the item is capable of being used as a part of a lethal barrelled weapon or a prohibited weapon.”
2 This amendment removes any doubt as to the status of other parts by defining finished major components. This does not apply to the components of a shotgun, just a Section 1 firearm.
This results in no change for the shooting community as it enshrines current practice based on the Firearms Consultative Committee recommendations contained in its 9th annual report
