A: Rodrigo, no sir. Prohibited - Semi-automatic centerfire rifles that do not have a fixed magazine, but have any one of the following features:: ○ Pistol grip - a grip that protrudes conspicuously beneath the action of the firearm. budsgunshop.com/feeds/state_reg/california_restrictions.pdf , Stay safe & have a great day!

A: Robert, +P ammo is ok. From the ownwers manual - . • "Plus-P" (+P) ammunition generates pressures in excess of the pressures associated with standard ammunition. Such pressures may affect the wear characteristics and may result in the need for more frequent service. • "Plus-P-Plus" (+P+) ammunition must NOT be used in Smith & Wesson® firearms. This marking on the ammunition designates that it exceeds established industry standards, but the designation does not represent defined pressure limits and therefore such am- munition may vary significantly as to the pressures generated and could be DANGEROUS. . Stay safe & have a great day!

A: Hi Robert and welcome to the Buds Community. +P ammunition is not an issue. Smith and Wesson and other manufacturers baulk at +P+ due to mostly warranty reasons although most modern barrels can handle +p+ no issue. Just make sure to do more frequent inspections and cleaning intervals if you plan on running a steady diet of +P ammunition. Cheers and stay safe!

A: Personally, I would NOT use +P+ ammo due to the much higher pressures associated with these rounds. A light diet of +P I do not see a problem with.

A: Robert, yes sir, +p ammo is perfectly fine in this. As with any manufacturer they recommend limited use since it can wear parts quicker than standard velocity ammo but honestly unless you're shooting thousands of rounds doubt you'll ever notice a difference vs standard velocity ammo. Just don't shoot +p+ ammo threw it. Hope this helps.

A: Hi Tanya and welcome. Unfortunately, no. Cheers and stay safe! https://crosscut.com/politics/2023/04/washington-state-bans-sale-most-semi-automatic-rifles#:~:text=Jay%20Inslee%20signed%20House%20Bill,Jay%20Inslee%20for%20his%20signature.

A: It's a huge no on this model, sorry. Semi-auto with a detachable magazine & pistol grip makes thus a no-no in Washington.

A: Hi Tanya, unfortunately this is not legal. The pistol grip is the deal beaker. Prohibited - A semiautomatic, center fire rifle that has the capacity to accept a detachable magazine and has - A grip that is independent or detached from the stock that protrudes conspicuously beneath the action of the weapon. The addition of a fin attaching the grip to the stock does not exempt the grip if it otherwise resembles the grip found on a pistol. budsgunshop.com/feeds/state_reg/washington_restrictions.pdf , Stay safe & have a great day!

A: Tanya, this is no longer legal in Washington. Any semi-automatic firearm with a detachable magazine wearing specific accessories like a telescoping/collapsible stock, threaded barrel, muzzle brake, or pistol grip are restricted. Sorry but hope this helps. If interested here's a link to Washington's restrictions........................ https://www.budsgunshop.com/feeds/state_reg/washington_restrictions.pdf

A: Hi Fred and welcome. Same plane sights will work no issue since both rear and front sights will be equal height on the top rail. Cheers and stay safe!

A: Fred, yes, flip up iron sights will work fine on this gun. Stay safe & have a great day!

A: Steve, no, the M&P FPC is compatible with M&P full-size and compact pistol double-stack magazines and includes one 17 round magazine and two 23 round magazines. So mags for the 5906 and 6906 won't fit.
