Upper problem... flash hider!

[OpenYourEyes]

So i ordered a complete upper from surplusammo for a really good deal when they had their holiday sale... only problem is i just realized it came with a flash hider. So now what are my options? And around how much is this going to cost to fix? I have no idea & I'm not trying to get busted.

Thanks for the help!

why would an upper with a flash hider be illegal

if your firearm has a pistol grip it can have a flash hider too

it will cost you zero dollars to fix it. you dont need to do anything, except make sure your lower has a bullet button.

I just did a search on here and read a thread from 2010 saying flash hiders are illegal in cali, and i thought I'd heard that before. So is this not the case anymore... or was it never the case? It will have a pistol grip as well as a bullet button

Oh and this is an AR15 I'm building. First AR, first build

[shooterfpga]

look up any of the "post your ar15" threads, you will see this is not the case. all of us have a flash hider, comp, or brake.

By this chart it is illegal. Sorry.

FH's are not illegal as long as you follow the chart

Sorry for my ignorance. So basically on a featureless rifle it's a no go, but a bullet buttoned AR it's good to go

Yep

Sorry, that's totally wrong. You can have threads on a featureless. Hell you can even have a muzzle brake / compensater. It just can't decrease flash.

For an example an AK with a slant brake is gtg as a featureless

So if he puts a BB on it is okay?
