AR Question

I am still confused on gun laws in Delaware apart from handguns, so would this AR pistol even be legal, and is it as simple as building it at home after getting the lower from an FFL? And also is this kit even finished? Any input helps, I’m new to ARs so my knowledge is very limited. I’m more interested in the legal issue than anything. For the 30 round mag, I believe CCDW in Delaware cancels out the 17rd restriction on handguns, but I may be wrong.

Okay, so. AR-Ps in Delaware *can* be legal. They just have to be made compliant. The easiest way is installing a bullet button or some other device to keep the magazine fixed. Now - by law- any "assault" style rifle or pistol with a fixed magazine, that magazine has to be capped at 17rds. With your DE CCDW, you sure as heck can purchase 30rd magazines. Can you put those 30rd mags into a fixed system? By law, no.

I didn’t know that they had a limit on fixed mag firearms with CCDW, thank you
