Q: Would this be considered California Compliant, or legal to own?

Author: Thomas P.

(2) ANSWERS

A: Hi Thomas and welcome. Yes Sir, being a "Pump Action" makes it 100% CA legal to purchase and own. Cheers, stay safe and enjoy! Details under "Rifles" here: https://www.budsgunshop.com/feeds/state_reg/california_restrictions.pdf

Author: James G.

A: Yes, 💯 % good to go in CA!!

Author: Jason L.

Q: Is there anything written that says that a threaded barrel on a rifle such as this, still allows it to be considered as California compliant? I am confused as to when a threaded barrel on a rifle is or is not allowed.

Author: Thomas P.

(2) ANSWERS

A: Hi Thomas, threaded barrels are not prohibited on rifles in CA, even semi-auto rifles. Threaded barrels are only prohibited on semi-auto handguns. With this being a pump action, there are no restrictions, so you can have all the 'evil' features you want. Stay safe & have a great day!

Author: Ed C.

A: Hi Thomas and welcome. It is California compliant even with the threaded barred. Pump rifles are not restricted. Even semi-auto rifles with threaded barrels are not restricted unless a combination of other restrictions apply. Details under "Rifles" here: https://www.budsgunshop.com/feeds/state_reg/california_restrictions.pdf ------------------------- Cheers, stay safe and enjoy!
