(Putting on my flame gear - I know this is going to hurt.)
I am considering building an AR pistol in MA. I'm aware that they are subject to the AWB, must be under 50oz, etc. I intend to follow all applicable laws to the letter.
That said, is there any way (BESIDES getting arrested and going to trial) to get a ruling on whether or not a specific configuration is legal? Back in the old federal AWB days one could write a letter to the BATFE and they would reply back with a "yeah, that looks legal" or "no, you're going to jail" letter. Basically I'm looking for a little insurance to cover my ass.
Go easy.
