    Clover leafs at 50yds suppressed with a 2moa dot and Wolf steel ammo.
    My AR47 I had briefly was very accurate with Wolf ammo, kinda wish I held on to that one!

    To Carry in Michigan, the pistol has to be under 26". Generally a 10.5" barrel will come in around 25.5" with a pistol buffer tube. If you add things like a permanently attached flash hider, LAW folding stock... you would need a shorter barrel.

    did we ever find anybody who would bet their freedom on a LAW folder being able to fire one shot while folded, and thus still qualifying as a pistol?

    So as long as the flash hider, brace or blade are removable, I don't have to count it? Can any of our lawyer friends confirm my understanding?

    Here is an update, and a big thank you to all who contributed to this thread guiding me in the right direction.

    Here is the picture: ended up with an 8.5in upper and a pistol lower with Shockwave blade II. Flip up sights, Sig Romeo 5, and an angled foregrip and rail covers in gray (to give it an accent). I shot it once with iron sight to test function and it functioned flawlessly. Can't wait to shoot it wit the red dot and zero it in for 50 yards.

    Nice!! Try 1" low at 25 yards for a zero, seem to have a good flight path at that over bore.

    Looks great brother! 1" low at 25 might end up zero at 50, idk. I know 50 yard zero works great for my AR-10!! Keeps me + or - 2" out to 225
