Is this specific rifle NJ Compliant?

Justin, Dictator Murphy said NO! That buck toothed gun grabber thinks the threaded barrel and adjustable stock makes it an assault weapon. The pistol grip, adjustable stock, and threaded barrel together make this illegal in NJ. S&W makes a NJ compliant .22lr that has a fixed stock & non-threaded barrel. I am a NJ resident and own this one (Bud's is not using correct photo, but this is NJ compliant) budsgunshop.com/product_info.php/products_id/5259/smith+%26+wesson+m%26p+15-22+sport+10+round+compliant , .

How many magazines come with this rifle?

Hi Steven and welcome to the community. Included are (2) 10rd Magazines. Spare magazines if desired here:https://www.budsgunshop.com/product_info.php/products_id/713099376/rock+island+magazine+tm22 - Cheers and stay safe!

will a larger mag work with this

Chase, yes sir, you can get 25 round magazines for this. Unfortunately buds doesn't have any in stock at the moment. If you google the upc number (812285028729) you can find some in stock. I'd recommend the 3rd website PSA. Hope this helps.

Hi Chase, yes there are 25rd mags available, currently out of stock at Bud's, but available here >>> outdoorlimited.com/armscor-rock-island-tm22-22lr-magazine-25-rounder-tm2225/ Stay safe & have a great day!

Can you change the barrel to a little bit shorter one

Walter, RIA does not make shorter barrels for this gun, it either comes with 18" or 20" barrel. You would need to have a gunsmith cut it down to 16" for you. Stay safe & have a great day!

Hi Walter and welcome. No without some legal issues Sir. Once under 16 inches, the classification changes to a SBR or Short Barreled Rifle. It would then need to be registered as a NFA firearm and a $200 Tax Stamp paid. This is a average 6 month process till completion. Cheers and stay safe! Details here : https://www.budsgunshop.com/nfaguidelines.pdf

Walter, I'm not finding any manufacturer selling replacement barrels for this at the moment. If you can find one that fits yes. Instead of replacing it would probably be easier to get a gunsmith to cut the barrel down to 16 inches and rethread it. You can't go any lower than 16 inches without reclassifying it as a sbr/short barreled rifle and require a $200 tax stamp. If you plan on adding a muzzle brake of some sort you could cut it to 14.5 inches and permanently attach a muzzle brake by pin/welding it. Since the muzzle brake would be pinned/welded the ATF considers it as part of the barrel to make it 16 inches. That would be the route I'd go by getting a gunsmith to cut the barrel. Hope this helps.

If you changed it to a barrel length shorter than 16" it would be considered an SBR & would need an NFA tax stamp if I'm not mistaken.

Is this Legal in Connecticut ?

Hi George and welcome to the community. Unfortunately no due to the combination of Pistol Grip, Telescoping Stock and Threaded Barrel. A trusty alternative is the 10/22 : https://www.budsgunshop.com/product_info.php/products_id/69917/ruger+.22+lr+ss+syn+1256 - Cheers and stay safe!

George, as others have mentioned this is not legal in Connecticut due to the pistol grip, telescopic/collapsible stock, and threaded barrel. Sorry but hope this helps. If interested here's a link to Connecticut's restrictions ..................... https://www.budsgunshop.com/feeds/state_reg/connecticut_restrictions.pdf

George, unfortunately no. Prohibited - .22 Rimfire rifles that are semi-auto with ability to accept detachable magazines and any two of the following features: 1. Pistol grip 2. Folding / telescoping stock 3. Bayonet mount 4. Flash suppressor 5. Threaded barrel . Numbers 1,2, & 5 disqualify this in CT. . Stay safe & have a great day!

could i change hand guard over to mlock?

No sir, this is not compatible with standard AR components. You can not swap out the handguard. Stay safe & have a great day!

Unfortunately no, even though it looks like a standard Delta ring and two piece drop in style AR-15 handguard it uses proprietary components. So its not interchangeable with standard AR-15 handguards. Sorry but hope this helps

I think I can guess the answer, but is this model CA compliant since it is rimfire, not center-fire?

Hi Eli, as bad as CA infringes on your rights, this gun is actually legal, being a .22lr. Permitted: ✔ All rimfire caliber rifles with a magazine capacity of 10 rounds or fewer https://www.budsgunshop.com/feeds/state_reg/california_restrictions.pdf , Stay safe & have a great day!

Hi Eli, this is a Rimfire and is not restricted like a Centerfire Rifle in CA. Details under Rifles Permitted here : https://www.budsgunshop.com/product_info.php/products_id/78649/stevens+320+security+12ga+18.5+cyl

Is this rifle legal in Illinois with the new restrictions?

Hi Ramon and welcome to the Community. No Sir. This configuration has too many restricted features including the Pistol Grip, Threaded Barrel and Collapsible/Telescopic Buttstock. Cheers and stay safe!

Ramon, no, even being a 22 it's not legal in Illinois due to the pistol grip, collapsible/telescopic stock and threaded barrel. Sorry but hope this helps some. If interested here's a link to Illinois's restrictions................... https://www.budsgunshop.com/feeds/state_reg/illinois_restrictions.pdf

Ramon, unfortunately this is no longer compliant. It can not have a pistol grip. Details here https://www.budsgunshop.com/feeds/state_reg/illinois_restrictions.pdf

Is the barrel threaded ? I’m waiting on ATF approval for my silencer and looking for a .22LR like this to put my suppressor on.

Yes, the barrel has a 1/2 x 28 thread pitch. Here are the full specs. https://559399.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hubfs/559399/TM22-A-18.jpg

Hi Phillip and welcome. This barrel has 1/2x28 thread pitch. Cheers and stay safe!

Can I get this rifle in Washington state or would it be deemed illegal under newer laws I thank the community for an answer

Tanya, this is legal in Washington State, Rimfire rifles do not have the same restrictions as centerfire rifles. Details here budsgunshop.com/feeds/state_reg/washington_restrictions.pdf , Stay safe & have a great day!

Be careful when ordering in WA. Some FFL’s won’t accept this even though it is rimfire (much to my chagrin, I want one as well). The new law based on HB1240 first specifies a list of banned firearms (before it even gets into the rimfire/centerfire discussion). On that list is “AR15, M16, or M4 in all forms”. I believe the law is purposefully vague so nobody on the planet can actually guarantee that a rifle that is “AR-like” wouldn’t fall into that definition given the “in all forms” verbiage. Talk to your FFL before ordering.

Tanya, yes since this is a rimfire it's perfectly legal in Washington state. Hope this helps.

Hi Tanya and welcome. Yes, this is currently legal in the State of Washington. Cheers and stay safe!
