California laws.

California Residents:

Use the Easy Boltâ„¢ and an Extended barrel to complete your Polymer80 pistol builds legally! You can also use our kit to transfer a Lone Wolf Timberwolf frame to your favorite FFL. Send us a message for more information.
A plan is just a list of things that doesn't happen.
Is defenestration possible through the overton window?

Why would anyone want to convert a Glock to bolt action?

FTFY
=D
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

At least the bolt action add-on is small and unobtrusive.   ;/

So, this will allow you to import off list pistols to CA, is that what I understand?  And then you can pull off the device and use it as intended?   ???

They managed to make a Glock uglier.   :laugh:

Does anyone know what guns are still on the approved list in California?  I thought Glock gen 3 were on the approved list at one time.

This is an 80% "build an unregistered gun" kit if I am understanding this right.

Somehow I doubt anyone would carry such a pistol for defense. Someone with an 1861 Navy pistol could get off shots faster.

Calguns forum would have that info, and they also have a pretty good 2nd A forum too'

I'm not sure, but the Anti-Gun bill they recently passed put quite a few previously "legal" guns on the naughty list.

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

This just baffles me. https://www.inlanderarms.com/

Anything THAT outlandish is either extreme tactical derp or response to lawfare.

Looks like virtually all of their products LOOK tactical derp, but are very logical engineering responses to lawfare. I applaud anyone putting insane amounts of thinking into getting around unethical, immoral and illegal laws in amusing ways.

Q: Do I really need to build my 80% handgun this way to be legal?

A: If you are a California resident and intend to build here, yes (AB 1964). If you plan on registering your gun, CA DOJ is asking for proof (pictures) of how it was built legally.
Starting July 2018, all 80% builds will have to go through the registration process with CA DOJ (AB 857).
"Rev, your picture is in my King James Bible, where Paul talks about "inventors of evil."  Yes, I know you'll take that as a compliment."  - Fistful, possibly highest compliment I've ever received.

They are requiring documentation of the build process? Wow.

It's California. And they have a tame Federal Circuit Court, so even appealing to federal court of civil right violations will get you nowhere unless the Supreme Court is willing to take the case.
