M&P15-22 Pistol MA legal?

I didn't ask if it was compliant.

I didn't ask if it was legal at it's current weight.

I asked if it was under 50 oz would it be legal.

Given that it has a "Barrel shroud", and a magazine that attaches at a point other than the pistol grip, I can't see how it could be.

Bull. YOUR h eading:
M&P15-22 Pistol MA legal?

And where do you think you'll get the pre-ban mags needed to make it lawful or even worth having?

Maybe you should have dug into the thread a little more? A title can only contain so many words.

As far as the pre-ban mags? I dont know...I figured I'd get the 10 round post-ban option from S&W...

Maybe you should learn what "MA legal" means. And how to use question marks correctly.

The ones it doesn't offer for the gun which it doesn't sell in MA because it's not "MA legal?" THOSE mags?[rolleyes]

Again; feel free to READ the entire post. Not just the title.

They make an M&P15-22 MA legal/compliant rifle. It has 10 round mags. I'm sure those would also work in the pistol version.

Again, grasp the concept. The gun is not MA compliant. It IS a post-ban "assault pistol." What part don't you comprehend?
 
Only option would be to have it turned into a AOW. I'm sure this is something Zero Hour could probably do and transfer it to you for $5 on a Form 4.
 
No. Compliance aside, the AWB restricts pistols based on features as well as weight. It has those features, so it's a no-go.

I thought it was 50oz OR any the features. Not both.

So if i can shave one oz off it and get it under 50oz, and permanently attach a muzzle device.

Now it only has a pistol grip and detachable mag. How is it not legal?

Actually weight is one of the four "things" that could make something an assault pistol. You can't have more than one of the four.

(C) a semiautomatic pistol that has an ability to accept a detachable magazine and has at least 2 of--
(i) an ammunition magazine that attaches to the pistol outside of the pistol grip;
(ii) a threaded barrel capable of accepting a barrel extender, flash suppressor, forward handgrip, or silencer;
(iii) a shroud that is attached to, or partially or completely encircles, the barrel and that permits the shooter to hold the firearm with the nontrigger hand without being burned;
(iv) a manufactured weight of 50 ounces or more when the pistol is unloaded;​

The barrel shroud.


FYI, there is a thread about this in the legal section: http://www.northeastshooters.com/vbulletin/threads/101594-Building-an-AR-pistol-in-MA

There once was a jerk named Scrivener
Who never could be nice to a beginner
The mods they did reprimand
Until he got banned
And no longer can he be an NES'er



RIP Scriv... we reap what we sow...
