California Legal AR and AK Rifles

California Legal
AR15, AK Rifles & Saiga 12 Shotguns


Q. I live in California and was looking to buy a California legal AR using a bullet button. Its just hard to figure out what ones you have in stock and which ones can be made legal and which can not. Is DPMS CA legal? Can you give me a list of all the AR15 rifles that are California legal?

A. We sell California legal "off listed" ARs and AKs and also other firearms like the Saiga 12. These are not banned in California because they are not included on the California Dept. of Justice banned firearms list. We make them California legal for residents of California with the addition of the bullet button. (Many thanks to the folks at Calguns for spreading the word, including posting an official letter from the California DOJ firearms division confirming that such firearms can be made legal at customer request.)

What does a bullet button do?

The bullet button is not really a "button" at all. It is a cover with a hole in it, and it sits over the mag release. It is also referred to as a "mag lock." In order to get the mag to release, you need to stick a "tool" like a screwdriver or dowel into the hole in order to activate the mag release. You could also use the tip of a bullet for this purpose, so then you can call it a bullet button. Note: The bullet button does not change the way your mags work. To be more clear, it does NOT turn your rifle into a single shot by any means. It only affects how the mags eject from your gun.

How much does it cost?

  • We charge our dealer cost for bullet button and installation.
  • For almost all the rifles this price is $25, which is our dealer cost for bullet buttons for all AR15 and AK rifles; however...
  • Some bullet buttons may cost us more. For example, HK USC Carbine bullet buttons are $36-$40. Beretta CX4 bullet buttons are $35-$50 because these require a lot of tinkering and time to get them to fit.

What about the hicaps?

  • We are prohibited by law from shipping hicap mags over 10 rounds to California.
  • If your rifle package states that it has a mag over 10RD, then the mag will not be included.
  • There is no price adjustment made to your order in this case and you are not buying a hicap mag from us.
  • We will offer to sell the Calif. legal 10RD or 5RD mags to you at our dealer cost if you purchase them when you buy your firearm from us.

What about rifles with folding stocks?

  • We pin any folding stock so it is not folding. Therefore, your rifle meets California length requirements (must be 30 inches or longer). This is FREE.
  • We do not modify collapsible or 6-position stocks. These are already legal in California "as is," because when fully collapsed the rifle is not under 30 inches in length.

Can my firearm be returned to original condition?

  • Yes. Your firearm is actually always in its originally manufactured condition. We don't destroy anything. No "manufacturing" or "remanufacturing" is done at all. Therefore, if you leave California and want to return your fireamr to original condition, you will be able to do so.

Will my warranty still be valid?

  • Yes. Your warranty that comes with your firearm will be valid.

Customer Request for Bullet Button

After purchasing your firearm, you need to request catalog item 1pszBB or another similar catalog number. This item is the customer request for installation of bullet button / mag lock on the firearm already purchased, after the customer has purchased the rifle or shotgun. This item pays for the bullet button and installation for buyers of rifles and shotguns that need a bullet button/mag lock to be California compliant. This item is only available to our California buyers of firearms that require a bullet button to make their modern sporting rifle California legal. We choose the best bullet button for your particular firearm as required by California law after you have purchased your firearm at PersonalSecurityZone.com.

In the case of this alteration, the work is being performed at the request of the customer after the purchase has been made. The firearm has not been modified previous to its sale to the customer. There is no manufacturing involved in the installation of the bullet button / mag lock. This alteration is not performed as a regular course of business or trade, and it is performed only upon special request of the customer after the purchase of the firearm. This alteration is not performed for the purpose of sale or distribution of the firearm.

Which firearms can be made legal upon customer request after purchase by adding bullet button for California compliance?

As far as the rifles go, the Remington, S&W, LWRC, STAG, CMMG, Olympic Arms, Remington and more all make rifles that can be made legal in California. Also able to be made legal are some Rugers and Bushmaster ACR and Carbon 15 AR rifles are also legal-with-bullet-buttonl! Below are links to today's current stock for ARs by each of these manufacturers.

Please note that all the DPMS AR rifles are not California legal at all, because they are listed on the CA DOJ banned list by company name. DPMS had the unfortunate misfortune of being completely blacklisted when the DOJ list was drawn up. Firearm models and company names must be "not-named" on the list in order to be legal in California.

Ruger
All Ruger rifles in stock. California legal Ruger semi-auto centerfire rifles include Mini-14 as well as AR15 rifles. Regarding Mini-14 rifles, the Mini-14 is not an assault weapon as per Calif. law. Therefore you do not need a bullet button on a Mini-14. As long as you choose a Mini-14 with no flash suppressor / flash hider (but a muzzle break is legal in Calif.) and as long as your Mini-14 has mags that are 10RD or less, it is legal in California.

Beretta CX4 . Rarely in stock these days, until Beretta gets their new product line in order, but the good news is that CX4 is long enough to meet the California requirements, as long as you do not remove Beretta's stock spacer (which comes already installed). Please note, we do not put spacers in any hicap mags and can not ship the hicap mags to California unless you are LE and your FFL has a hicap permit. See more notes about hicaps above.

There are more manufacturers and models that we can ship to California. If you think a particular model can be made California compliant with bullet button, and if you would like to make sure before placing your order, please email us the catalog no and your request and we'll look it up to make sure.
