Call the Russians and ask if they will build it for you. You seem to like their other guns.

I know they're useless Mike, that isn't telling me something I already know.
Useless hasn't really stopped me from an endeavor yet though. I'll shoot a few more and let it stew for a little while longer, that's helped get rid of the want before.
This is a rare instance where I disagree with Mike. I think a 10.5" to 12.5" SBR AR is a practical use carbine, within it's limitations. Stoke it with some TAP T2 or one of the new Barnes bullet loadings and it becomes a very good defensive carbine out to 100 yards or so. It makes a lot more sense in a HD role than a shotgun or pistol, particularly if your defensive plan is to barricade and wait for the BG's to come to you. As pointed out, they work really well from a vehicle and I'm not aware of anyone that wants to get shot with a .22 Hornet., particularly in the bread basket or face!
I'm going to admit that my SHTF carbine is a 14.5". But for HD, lighting it off with the Battle Comp 1.5 indoors doesn't appeal to me. So the 11.5" 6933 with M4-2K suppressor gets the nod for HD.

The only thing that kept me from jumping on the SBR band wagon sooner was all the last minute interstate travel I used to do with work.

That's a good point. You can't take it out of state without permission from big brother.

I thought you just had to notify, not get permission.

You have to get permission.

I believe that the 5320.20 is not required for suppressors and maybe AOWs. Suppressors I'm certain of. I don't own either so it's been a while since I went over those regs.

You guys should have shot the full auto suppressed 300blk at USSA a couple months ago. Omfg it was awesome. I wish it was SBR too but the 16" with the suppressed really wasn't all that bad, even in the shoot house.
