Rifles with bullet buttons for the quick swap of ammunition magazines

 

 

 

Dec. 21 was the last day to purchase a gun with bullet buttons, because of the 10-day wait for a background check. He said he’d shot his first deer several months ago, and wanted to expand his arsenal.

(likely he has one rifle - that is an "arsenal" now)

Actually, TWO guns are an arsenal. Saw that on the news the other day. Guy with 2 guns had an "arsenal".

So what the heck is this "fixed stock" mentioned in the article that makes AR- type rifles non-assault types...?

Joe,

That EBR in the picture isn't legal in CA under the old CA AWB, except under the exceptions carved out for LEO's. It has too many features. The Rainier Arms lower wasn't mfg before 2000 or 1990. The black device attached to the muzzle disappeared from CA legal AR's after 1989.

 

Hardpan,

 

Under the revised CA AWB even if your bullet button AR has an A2 "Fixed" stock or your bullet button gun requires either installing a fixed magazine device or removing the pistol grip to not require registration. Exile Machine makes a CA legal replacement for the pilot grip. The product model is called the "Hammerhead". http://www.exilemachine.net/shop/exile-machine-hammerhead-ca-legal-ar-stock-adapter-blk-1.html

CA legal???

Looks like the firearm was manufactured by Adobe in their Photoshop factory!

CA legal???

 

 

I'd like some details on it, but right off hand, I would say "No." You would at the very least need to change out that magazine release for a MagLock or something similar and make sure that the magazine holds no more then 10 rounds.
