First, I understand that flash hiders and flash suppressors are illegal in MA on a post-ban AR however a recoil compensator is okay. Is this correct?
Second, if a compensator is legal, what are my options for installing one? I currently have a 16" bull barrel on my M&P...can one be attached to my current barrel by a gunsmith?? Or can my barrel be threaded to accept one?? Maybe I would need to buy a barrel with a compensator already installed?? I know there is really no recoil on an AR, but I would like a compensator installed basically for the aesthetics. I also like the look of the fake supressor cans, but those are made for threaded barrels as well. I would prefer just a compensator over the fake supressor. Any insight u guys can offer would be appreciated!!
