I was working with the GF on her LTC-A class paperwork. She had some questions I even faulted on! So here is the one we could not get a streight answer on...
We have been looking to buy a S/W M&P 15-22 ( the .22 version ). I was told by a dealer in NH that this rifle had to have at least 2 of the 3 strikes to be NOT Mass compliant. He was proud to say that his were OK for MA becuase:
There was no flash supressor
No Bayonet attachment
It did have the stock that could slide back and forth to make it longer/shorter. He mentioned that he had a few magazines for his MA customers that were only 10 rounds.
So, would this be a Mass complaint rifle? I would think that ANY dealer would need to know better about what he is selling.
Also, does the fact that it's a .22 keep it out of the "assault weapon" terminology?
What do you think? Just get one from MA???
thanks
