sohijiro said:so like ca still has a overlapping ban on characteristics still? i remember the ak/ar ban, but whatever, KAC has a legal modular system for it. and i see people saying how they are putting previously illegal stuff on their ar's because the federal ban dropped. like like whats the real deal on that, ive been hella reading up on it. but i cant find a precise answer, since all it says is "conspicuously beneath the action".

B12Bill said:the fed ban on 'assault weapons' expired, but the states have the 'right' to pass more stringent laws than the federal govt. In california, a rifle cant have certain characteristics. Among them, pistol grip and detachable magazine, for instance. Also included would be folding or collapsible stock.
What you posted would not be legal in California if it wasnt already in state and in your possesion before that particular law was passed.
On your .45 on order - nice choice. I have the 'loaded' model with fixed sights and standard finish. Its a great pistol
zefflyn said:Those people with the AR, they had the "assault weapon" before the CA ban passed, and it is legally registered. So, since it's an assault weapon already, it doesn't matter if it has 3 or 5 of the assault weapon characteristics (like, removable magazine, pistol grip, collapsible stock, flash supressor, bayonet lug).
The M1A isn't an assault weapon, so it's illegal to turn it into one by adding a flash suppressor or collapsible stock.
Plus, are you sure that chassis will fit the SOCOM model M1a?

I wouldn't trip over it, besides, it's like a 5-minute job to swap out the stocks if you're going to a AW-Nazi range.
