Taurus CT9 to SBR

[V-Tach]

Since I don't have anything in this CT9 (gift), I'm going to SBR it and do some modifications. The current 16 in. barrel with be shortened to 10 inches and threaded 1/2X28. ....If I go any shorter I will also have to modify the upper receiver and handguard. .....The butt ugly awful thumbhole stock (which my friend already modified) is going away too........

I cut the stock off.....................

Standard AR15 grips fit great...................

The rubber buffer..........................

I'm milling an aluminum plate to attach to the rear (will paint it black) and mount a rail on it to attach

a folding buttstock..............

Some AR15 GI fire control parts actually fit this rifle..................

6 bolts hold the barrel/trunnion in the upper receiver. They were slathered in red loctite......a heat gun made short work of their removal.......

Milled the rear plate for the stock mounting...........

They do but you have to use followers from the 10 rd mags........someone is 3D printing the followers from what I understand.......I have plenty of Uzi mags....

Cheap HF saw, but pair it with a quality Starrett blade and it's actually pretty good...............

Will square, thread and cut a crown on the lather.....................
