Hello neighbors,

I'm going to be traveling to socal first weekend of August, and would like to bring a bolt action in 308. A shooting range is close to where I'll be at, so might as well punch some paper.

Savage model 10 to be exact. It's got detachable mags. 5 & 10 round mags.

Am I good to go with such a setup? Or, is this a no go? I did try to google this question, but all I get is 30 round ar mags.

I'm assuming that a bolt action rifle is still ok? But the detachable mags might not be?!

Thanks for your time and help.

You can't import anything over 10 round capacity.  For those already here, there is an injunction on the requirement to dispose of/permanently alter anything over 10 rounds.

Do not bring any magazine that can hold more than ten rounds.  Test them to be sure an eleventh round does not fit.

Alright, I'll just take the 5 rounders just to play it safe.


I also found the ca aw flow chart, from what I can tell, I'm in the featureless rifle category.

Thanks for your assistance in this question.

Have a great day & week.

Lol!

Your right good Sir, but that's not the hill I'm willing to die on.

Bolt action rifles are 100% legal and not covered by any AW rules period. So don't worry about bringing it here with you when you visit.

As has been stated already, magazine capacity is no more than 10 rounds. You can bring your 10 round mags as they're legal and I doubt any cops would even look twice at your bolt gun.

Have fun, be safe and enjoy your time here in CA.

Sport Chalet and Ernie Jrs have left the building (sniff) Several of the long term places on lake Street have gone in the last few years.  


Camerons seems to have improved significantly

Lupitas at Colorado and Sierra Madre is pretty good.

Famous Shsh Kebab on Colorado is pretty good.  The lamb shank is worth a trip just to get one of them.
