Hello
I tried searching this forum and others and seem to be getting mixed answers.
From what I've gathered reading build threads what I'm about to ask does indeed happen and some people talk openly about it.
I've purchased a brand new post-ban stripped lower receiver and it will be in my possession here in CT shortly.
I would like to purchase a complete upper that has a bayonet lug and threaded barrel w/muzzle brake and have it shipped to my parents house in RI. I may also have a collapsible stock delivered to RI as well.
Once the upper and stock arrives in RI I will grind off the bayonet lug, silver solder the muzzle break and pin the stock to make it CT legal and then transport these items back to my home in CT and mate them with the lower receiver.
Would this be "legal"?
Yes I realize internet advice isn't the word of the law but it seems as though what I'm proposing is done quite often.
It wouldn't be a straw-man purchase as my name will be on everything and until the parts are legal in CT they would never be within 40 miles of each other.
