Smith & Wesson M&P FPC Folding 9mm Blue/Black Rifle

A: Hi Douglas and welcome. I would check with a local FFL Dealer for the latest legality news for the Smith & Wesson M&P FPC Carbine. Cheers and stay safe!

A: Fellow NY'r here, Ed C. Is correct. This has a detachable magazine & Pistol grip so for the Empire state, it's a huge no.

A: Douglas, there is no NY complaint model. A semi-automatic rifle that can accept a detachable magazine can not have a pistol grip. Perhaps you saw that before the law changed. budsgunshop.com/feeds/state_reg/new_york_restrictions.pdfc , Stay safe & have a great day!

A: Michael, much to the dismay of Dictator Murphy, this gun is legal in The People's Republik of New Jersey. It has a non-threaded barrel and fixed stock. This is not a folding stock, the gun itself folds in half. Stay safe & have a great day!

A: Hi Michael and welcome to the forum. No Sir. It is currently good to go in the State of NJ. Cheers, stay safe and enjoy!

A: Hi Bertram and welcome. Unfortunately it is not. IL Rifle restrictions listed here : https://www.budsgunshop.com/feeds/state_reg/illinois_restrictions.pdf -------- Cheers and stay safe!

A: With your new Illinois Gun Restrictions I'm sorry to say it is Not...

A: Bertram, Prohibited - A semiautomatic rifle that has the capacity to accept a detachable magazine or that may be readily modified to accept a detachable magazine, if the firearm has one or more of the following: i. a pistol grip or thumbhole stock; ii. any feature capable of functioning as a protruding grip that can be held by the non-trigger hand; iii. a folding, telescoping, thumbhole, or detachable stock, or a stock that is otherwise foldable or adjustable in a manner that operates to reduce the length, size, or any other dimension, or otherwise enhances the concealability of, the weapon; iv. a flash suppressor; v. a grenede launcher; vi. a shroud attached to the barrel or that partially or completely encircles the barrel, allowing the bearer to hold the firearm with the non-trigger hand without being burned, but excluding a slide that encloses the barrel . Sorry, but the pistol grip is the disqualifying factor.

A: Hi Ken, there are states that infringe upon the rights of it's citizens and ban certain features, like collapsible stocks, flash hiders, threaded barrels, and magazines over 10 rounds. Compliant means this gun lacks some features which allows it to be sold in some, but not all, restricted states. In this case, the gun has a non-threaded barrel and is sold with (3) 10rd magazines, instead of the usual 30rd. (it will accept higher capacity mags) Stay safe & have a great day!

A: Hi Ken and welcome. Compliant refers to some States that put restrictions on certain firearm configurations like, magazine capacity, threaded barrels, pistol grips, muzzle brakes or flash hiders etc. The standard model comes with (3) 23rd magazines and threaded barrel whereas this compliant version comes with (3) 10rd magazines and a non-threaded barrel. It will also accept the 23rd magazines but no option to add a muzzle brake of suppressor since the barrel is not threaded. Cheers and stay safe!

A: Hi John and welcome. It is not due to the Pistol Grip. Details under Rifles here : https://www.budsgunshop.com/feeds/state_reg/california_restrictions.pdf ------- cheers and stay safe!

A: Hi Eric, yes sir, this has a heavy profile barrel and is MD legal. Stay safe & have a great day!
