Ar-15

[blkTJ]

I like this one... POF gen 2

I also like this for an upper... JP15

I think I also like the double action lower parts kit from rock river arms.

call cold war shooters in highland and see if they've got any lowers left.

and get a bullet button.

The best is to check with the DOJ or a licensed assault weapon dealer. Even "AR-15 style" rifle made by other manufacturers can still be illegal in CA. Bushmaster makes a "Post-Ban" one that renders it legal in NY, NJ, CT, and MA... But still illegal in CA.

Might also check http://www.ar15.com/forums/, a few dealers are on this forum.

Thats the worst thing you can do. The DOJ will tell you all Ar-15 style rifles are illegal. The DOJ only wants Military and Police to have "assault weapons". The "licensed assault weapon dealer" where I live says all AR's are illegal in CA unless you registered it before the ban. When I told him I just bought a Smith & Wesson M&P15 with a bullet button a few months ago he told me. "Your now a felon and and will go to prison if you get caught".

Erik, your best bet is to continue research on the calguns Site. From what I read the only way you can bring in a DPMS is if it has no reference to panther on the lower, and I hear only their older a-15 lowers fit that description.

$345.00 <YEOUCH!>

CWS had several other lowers a few months back for under $200.

have any of you shopped these on gunbroker.com?

do you see any CA legal versions of this ar15?

[Deamer]

Definitely read the descriptions when searching gunbroker. A lot of out of state people won’t sell to CA. The out of state FFL dealers have to register with the CA DOJ in order to ship to CA. A lot of them don't want to go through the hassle even though it only takes less than 10 minutes. Or they don’t want to be in CA's database.

You need to find a CA FFL dealer that is OLL friendly and will accept the AR. Make sure to be very clear of what you want to transfer. I have read on Calguns where dealers refused to finish the transfer because of certain features and they sent the gun back. If I remember right the gun has to be made CA legal before it ships or be completely stripped. Some dealers might modify it before they transfer to you. The best thing is to find the local FFL dealer and ask them for their policy.

i spoke to a salesman at my local Turners Outdoorsman, and he said it would be no problem provided the gun had the bullet button installed when it showed up and magazine was 10 rounds.

still looking for the right one.

in going through the listings on gunbroker, did you see any that caught your eye?

[NAILER341]

well, i am making way on this thing.
i have the lower coming, and the upper on order.



Stag Arms Model 2HT with Samson Rail Complete Upper Half 5.56

the lower is a Rock River with adjustable stock. it has the single stage trigger, but i figure i'll get a feel for that before making any changes.

That's a nice setup, I have been looking online for stuff for my AR and they have the takedown pins with larger heads so you can pull them out easy, and they have some with rings so you can pull 'em and rock the upper forward to load the mag without removing it. I got the bullet button as well, but I like the option. If someone in a uniform asks how you load the thing, you can pull the pin and rock it forward and reload without removing the 'fixed' mag. it answers alot of questions without complications...

[Deamer]

Sweet! We are going to have to get a MJR shoot together in the future. My coworkers and I went last weekend. I got to shoot a S&W 460 magnun and a .50 cal Desert Eagle and numerous others. We had 18 different guns that we shot all day.

Kodiak, when they CA configured my S&W they put the extended pin in. I don't like the one with the ring, to me it just doesn't look right.

[Kodiak Spirit]

ahh, yeah the ring could get caught on stuff to I guess, good to know- I might get the extended version.

[RAT]

So did ya buy all this yet or still deciding?

[Kodiak Spirit]

I have my Double Star lower reciever all slapped together with a Stag Arms 6 position stock, Bullet Button, 10/20 mag and an Armalite parts kit. The fit and finish is awesome! I am on the hook for a Stag upper reciever, allready paid and everything, just waiting to see what brown can do for me...

Oh and I have the 9,999 .223 rounds sittin' here ... waiting to break that chrome lined bastard in...

[NAILER341]

So did ya buy all this yet or still deciding?
