A: Anthony, this gun is not on the CA DOJ roster of approved handguns. CA compliant handguns here >>>> budsgunshop.com/search.php/type/Firearms_Handguns/exclusive/ca

A: Scott, no Sir it does not. It has an Internal, automatic sear block system safety; integrated trigger safety; no magazine disconnect safety & no trigger pull required for takedown.

A: No, this does not have a magazine safety. I owned this but the full sized version great gun and again no magazine safety so you can fire it without the magazine in it. Hope this helps.
