Thread: New Gun Laws, Free Standing Pistol Grip Question.

So my civilian-pattern-pistol-gripped AR with no MSSA features 2 weeks ago, is now considered an MSSA because of the pistol grip. I have 6 months grace to either obtain an E endorsement for the rifle, or convert it to "sporting configuration" which doesn't exist anymore or something. Since it's an illegal MSSA now but the police are turning a blind eye to it, am I allowed to have other MSSA features? Can I unpin my adjustable stock? Can I stick an 8 round magazine in it? Has anyone thought about it? The official answer will be no, of course.

Just because the police choose to turn a blind eye, doesn't make it any less illegal. They can choose to prosecute you at anytime they like, their amnesty has no status in law. It only takes one cop in a bad mood to ruin your day!
