New AR Pistol for California, NOT A SINGLE SHOT

What the Legal Length for barrel and lower receiver for Folding stock on a Pistol ? Like the Law Tactical folding Stock adapter..

As far as I understand it, a pistol just need not exceed 26”, because at that point it becomes a rifle. I’ve seen pistols with everything from 5” barrels to 12” barrels (..and everything in between). I believe the Law Tactical folding adapter adds to the OAL because it can’t be fired while folded.

A pistol never becomes a rifle simply by added barrel length. For a weapon to be a "Rifle" under California law, it must be designed to be fired from the shoulder. Please refer to Penal Code section 17090.

And, when you have a "pistol" that is over 26" you have a Title One Other. Refer to the FA XO-26.

You can not BUILD your own that way because it would not be on the roster.

The other way to obtain a AR pistol is to PPT or intra-family transfer it.

Does that mean I can be gifted one from out of state by a family member? As long as it’s configured with CA legal parts.

Yes, as long as the out of state relative is direct bloodline up or down from you.
Cousins, uncles/aunts and brothers/sisters don't work.
Relation to you needs to be your parent/grandparent or child/grandchild.

It depends on who the family member is.

Copy that. Thanks for replying.

FINALLY shot mine today for the first time.

AR Maglock gen 4, and kingpin.

Bcm lpk pnt, some random cheap upper. Just magpul front and rear sights. Was pretty accurate, and most of my shots were 1 handed only.

Want to get a shorter barrel, with a slimmer hg, and a tail hook mod 2

Probably going to take the afg off. No real use in having it. I never touched it, in single handed, or shoulder braced firing.
