According to what I read over on AR15.com the pinning and welding of a muzzle device on a less than 16" barrel is no longer considered legal. It must be welded directly to the barrel. As I understand it, even silver solder is not acceptable.
I had thought of just buying one of the cheap 110 wire feed welders for the occasional muzzle device weld on, but after reading the posts in the equipment discussion section, I am rethinking that.
So my question is, what do you folks do?
