About to buy an AR-15 few questions

[ARCHIVED THREAD] - About to buy an AR-15 few questions

Posted: 5/20/2001 10:17:15 PM EDT

Hello all,
I am new to this board. And I am considering purchasing a AR-15. I noticed the deal with Castle Arms, and that the telescoping stock was fixed at full length. My question is this, how can I legally put a full functioning telescoping stock on a Post ban rifle? Is it even possible to do?
Thanks for the help
James

Also, the only way you are going to get a legal collapsible stock on a post ban rifle if you are an LEO and are allowed to use that rifle for duty work.

You can permanantly mount the magazine and open the receiver and load though the top. Or convert the thing to pump or bolt type action by removing the gas system. Then you can have all the evil features except detatchable mag or semi auto operation

Like stated above it is illegal on a postban unless for LEO/GOV use. I like the fullstock better even on prebans. On my preban I have to use the car stock fully open and the the lip on the stock part bothers me. I love the feel of the A2 stock.

Is that an A1 stock or did you contour the buttpad?
