I am fianaly building my first AR. unfortunately, I live in massachusetts and still have to deal with the assault weapons ban.
The upper that I am getting has a threaded on flash hider and bayo lug. I was thinking that I could replace the flash hider with a DPMS compensator and tack weld a bar to it that will go over the bayo lug. This way, if I have any problems and have to send the barrel back for warranty, I can just cut the weld at the compensator and reinstall the original flash hider.
Does anyone know of any other options to comply with the AWB without doing non reversable changes to the barrel?
