Troy PAR Sporting 5.56 NATO/.223 Remington Rifle

A: Here are the restrictions on firearms in Washington D.C. https://www.budsgunshop.com/catalog/feeds/state_reg/washington_dc_restrictions.pdf

A: Hi Terrance, It is legal in DC

A: Looks Ok to me! Enjoy it! The following are prohibited: Magazines exceeding 10 rounds .50 BMG ammunition Collapsible/adjustable stocks Stun Guns and TASERs Defense Sprays Batons Threaded barrels Air guns (pneumatic, spring, or BB) firing projectile exceeding .18" (i.e. .22 cal. Prohibited) Ammunition Qualifier: For the purchase of ammunition, the purchaser must present a valid firearms registration card. The following are prohibited: Semi-automatic shotguns with one or more of the following 1. Folding or telescoping stock 2. A pistol grip that protrudes conspicuously beneath the action of the firearm 3. Thumbhole stock 4. Vertical handgrip 5. Has the ability to accept a detachable magazine 6. Shotguns with revolving cylinders: a. Franchi SPAS 12 and LAW 12 b. Striker 12. The Streetsweeper type S/S Inc. SS/12

A: The way I read the restrictions I would say that it is NOT legal in DC I believe it would be legal because it is a pump and only 10 rounds in the Magazine but the fact that it has a threaded barrel makes it illegal. I would check with my local FFL holder to make sure of any local laws that may affect it budsgunshop.com/catalog/feeds/state_reg/washington_dc_restrictions.pdf on page 3 it says no threaded barrels

A: I'd be very careful, and perhaps check with the manufacturer or Bud's before ordering as there are a number of items you cannot have on a semi auto rifle in D.C. Including: telescoping stock, flash hider, detachable magazine, or pistol grip. All of which this rifle appears to have. Bud's will not modify a firearm to make legal either.

A: what I see is that because its a pump most of those restriction do not apply but on in the restrictions near the bottom it says The following are prohibited: Magazines exceeding 10 rounds .50 BMG ammunition Collapsible/adjustable stocks Stun Guns and TASERs Defense Sprays Batons ***********Threaded barrels**************** Air guns (pneumatic, spring, or BB) firing projectile exceeding .18" (i.e. .22 cal.

A: But DC is not a state

A: I agree with you 100%, DC is not a state - But Buds lists it under "State Restrictions" and so does every one else including the BATF as it has regulations same as any state.

A: The DC restrictions say no threaded barrel (not under Semi rifle) all by itself makes it Illegal

A: Allan, Yes the barrel is threaded. Flash hider not pinned or welded. 1/2 X 28 TPI

A: Hello there sweets. This has a threaded barrel. Not pinned for god sakes. Happy shootin

A: Allan, This rifle has a threaded barrel (1/2 X 28) with a Double chamber muzzle brake.

A: This is not pinned. It has a thread of 1/2x28. You can replace it with one of the same thread.
