Few things I personally would have done differently but overall nice looking stick.

The post is meaningless without a list of parts used in the build!

Brutal baby, brutal.  Terrific job and quite the list of parts.  Let me go see the vid.

Watched the vid.  Safety nut?  I'm definitely a safety guy,  sounded disparaging on your part,  perhaps I'm incorrect.

Thanks for the compliment! It was a lot of fun to build!

As for the safety but, to me safety and firearms go hand in hand but the types of comments and attacks I've read from commenters on YouTube videos from other people who don't safety check their firearms on camera is insane. So I was just making light of that.

Since your in Cali, will this be a RAW in January?

That looks awesome! Is that straight Burnt Bronze or a mix of Burnt Bronze and Armor Black?

Yep, SB880 is pissing off California gun owners... In January I'll have to make an annotation saying that the Bullet Button in the video is no longer legal.

So can you take the BB out then?

It is a removable part, if that is what you mean. The way the system works now is that it requires a tool to push in the center of the button to release the magazine. In January this becomes illegal. Though the people who created the bullet button already have a solution for it. It sucks, but better than welding a magazine to your lower.

Demonstrated here. https://youtu.be/-fdV96d91LI

I thought there might be a loophole where all the bullet button guns would become RAW's, once registered they could be like the rest of the countries AR's.

Yes there is that option. But registration has a few drawbacks too. It's been registered as an assault weapon and it's stuck with you forever. Meaning you cannot sell it unless you take off the parts that are considered scary and leave them off from then on. If you travel out of state with it, you cannot bring it back to CA, it may be confiscated. If you pass away, it is not transferable to family or children. It does with you.

Register it. Buy another cheap anderson lower if you want something unregistered. If you move out of state you can take it with you. If your kids move out of state you can pass it to them. In the mean time you have a RAW you can take to the range, practice with and use for self defense.

You do make a good point, at least for now. But even those are being registered. One of the other bills signed requires all 80% lowers and other lowers to be serialized and registered by 2018. How they will enforce this? I dunno. But if you get caught, you can have it confiscated. It sucks to live in CA if you are a gun owner.

Thanks for the compliment! If you wouldn't mind, please share of photo of your rifle. I enjoy checking out different builds and seeing if there is anything I would like to incorporate to my own.
