So here is my question. I'm looking to buy a new upper for my AR 15 (300 BLK) so i can try the new platform. The model i'm interested in comes with a threaded muzzle which is illegal in ct.
To be legal in CT, an AR-15 type rifle (or any semiautomatic rifle for that matter) can only have two of the following features:
1. Detachable Magazine
2. Pistol Grip
3. Folding or Collapsible Stock
4. Bayonet Mount
5. Flash suppressor or threaded barrel to mount a flash suppressor
6. Grenade launcher
Now, since by definition an AR-15 type rifle has Items 1 and 2, AR-15s can not have Items 3-6 in CT.
So my question is if i purchase the upper and fix (permanently) a muzzle break at the end before attaching it to the lower, is this legal? Or does this need to happen before i take possession?
