I don't know if this is the right section, but it pertains to building an AR and there is no section for topics about legality.
Anyway, I am building my first AR in California, and have been doing a lot of reading about laws. I am pretty set on an RRA standard A4 upper, but I am a little worried after seeing the RRA Standard A4 listed in Appendix B (http://www.calguns.net/caawid/flowchart.pdf) I am pretty sure that only pertains to lower receivers, because that is the only part you register or to a fully assembled RRA standard A4 because it has that particular lower receiver. I already have an OLL registered, so can I put the RRA Standard A4 upper on it in California or do I need to find a different upper? Thanks for the help! -Robert |

You must build the rifle in a manner that is not making a CA assault weapon. The state definitions are listed within the laws. The flow charts make it easier to understand the process needed to keep things legal, but you should still read and understand the actual laws.
The lower receiver is the only part considered to be a firearm. As long as your lower receiver is not listed as banned, you are good to build the rifle. The parts you use to build onto your legal lower receiver do not matter, as long as you are building it to meet the "featureless" type or even the "bullet button" type. Pending legislation will change the above. So it seems that you are still within the current laws at this time. |
