Flash/Muzzle brake permanent attachment

[boxtype1]

Newbie question.
I got an AR with 18" barrel lenght. Does the FH still need to be permanently attached? Same as Muzzle Brake?
Thanks.

Nope, you've cleared the 16inch mark

Jeffu is correct as usual, permanent FH/MB only on 14.5" and shorter barrels in beautiful california

Incorrect, anything less than 16". Granted most barrels are going to be 14.5" but the law is very specific and the 1.5" could land someone in jail.

Yeah, and it's a federal requirement - not just Cali
