For those asking about length

"Its about 2" longer than a typical PWD stock and 2" shorter than a Mil-Spec carbine stock. Because this stock's design features cheek weld, which other PDW designs do not, the compromise is 2 more inches in length."

That's about the same as the UCIW I think.

Quoted:

From the CA DOJ website:

12276.1 (a) Notwithstanding Section 12276, "assault weapon" shall also mean any of the following:
A semiautomatic, centerfire rifle that has the capacity to accept a detachable magazine and any one of the following:
A pistol grip that protrudes conspicuously beneath the action of the weapon.
A thumbhole stock.
A folding or telescoping stock.
A grenade launcher or flare launcher.
A flash suppressor.
A forward pistol grip.

This would have a pistol grip and a telescoping stock, making it illegal in CA as far as I can tell. I tried to search for updates on CA laws regarding telescoping stocks, and could not find anything. I don't want to derail this thread too much, so PM me if you want to discuss this further.

Back on topic, this lower looks like it rocks, and someday I will definitely own one. It looks like the perfect host for a 300BLK short upper with a suppressor.

Is this OK for California?  I assume it is still considered a stripped AR15 rifle lower, correct?


Because this has a stock built in, this is legally a "rifle" when sold. The stock is also a collapsible stock, and therefore would be illegal in CA, as it is a rifle that fits the assault weapons definition of CA.


We can have collapsable stocks in CA - it's NY I believe that requires fixed stocks only for rifles.

I didn't go off topic I asked if this specific item being advertised for sale by the OP - Rainier Arms -  was legal in my state.  Wasn't asking a general or hypothetical query to everyone, or start a discussion on CA byzantine gun laws.  It was a "Yes" or "No" question.  

And the answer is "YES" this  lower is legal for CA just checked.  Thought I would get a faster succinct response here, but that wasn't to be.  Sometimes a phone call is still best.

Glad you were able to determine that it is legal for your jurisdiction.

That's why I wanted to know.  The UCIW is a stock, with accompanying cheekweld, commonly available for $105.  For my $ this has to be either shorter, lighter, or otherwise more durable/better.

We already know this looks better in Stickmans photos, but that's normal.

I clicked the link before reading the description and thought damn, $625 is a lot for this. After reading the full description and doing a little math this is actually a pretty good deal, especially for something this unique.

Nope, not the only one.  I've never been a fan of the carbon fiber look in general, but especially not on an AR.  If I were to buy one, I'd end up rattle-canning it.

Living in NY, I'm not really the intended market for such a lower.  I was just giving my support to an aesthetic opinion.  However, I'd be willing to bet that The_Hammer and I are not alone in that opinion, so they should definitely consider offering a non-CF version.  Could offer it in black, FDE, OD, etc.

This receiver is integral to the lower receiver. It can't go ON an SBR because it would BE the SBR. Just like any receiver this would need to be registered as an SBR.

I see.  I see PDW stocks similar to this without the receiver such as...
https://troyind.com/products/pdw-stock-kit-blk

If I were to install the Troy PDW on a SBR would it need to be a Form 1 SBR?

An SBR is an SBR. How it was made isn't an issue. Home build or factory there's no legal difference in how they can be utilized or configured.

Additionally, a stock is a stock. There's nothing that makes a "pdw" stock any different than an A2 (or any other stock) legally. You can use a PDW stock on whatever rifle you want, doesn't matter if it's a 7.5" .22 SBR or a 20" .308.

My question was that unless I am mistaken a AR lower receiver (with a barrel < 16") does not need to be registered with a Form 1 if it is configured as a pistol with a pistol buffer kit.

So...my real question is if theTroy PDW kit is considered a pistol buffer kit?

ETA:  Found the answer.....thanx.
