Tristen, You can modify this firearm any way you like, but if you put a barrel shorter then 16" on this firearm you must pay $200 tax form and register this firearm as an SBR (short barrel rifle). It is a class III firearm and you have to fill out a form 4 and register it with the ATF per NFA rules. Without proper paperwork you could be a felon if caught.
