Hi all, this is my first post here, though I've spent many hours reading through the forum. I hope this is the right place to post this...
I hope to build an AR-15 some day, but right now I'm just processing and evaluating all my options to decide on what sort of setup I want. I'm leaning toward a 6.8 spc target/hunting carbine. I can't find information about specific methods to disable the "bad" features that would be illegal under the Massachusetts awb. There's plenty of info about pinning the compensator, but there's disagreement it seems about the stock.
Honestly I think I'd prefer an adjustable stock, so I'm wondering about just disabling the semi-auto nature of the rifle. Is there any "standard" or "accepted" method of doing this? I know enough mechanically how to make it happen, but what might be considered "legal" by the powers that be? My first thought is to remove the gas tube and pin/weld a dummy gas block on the barrel. Thoughts?
