Son moving back to Ca. M4 question
So I sent my son my Colt M4 a while ago and now he is moving back to Ca.
Is there a way for him to make this rifle featureless for Ca. and if so . How? Thanks in advance you guys. I've been out of the semi auto game for a long time.

Make sure that Colt model is not on the ban list.

You don't have to buy this particular kit (it's not in stock anyway) but this will give you a good idea of what you have to replace & what the replacements will need to look like. Or go fixed mag & have to open the upper after every 10 rounds.

If it's not featureless, then it needs a non detachable magazine. Keep all parts you remove from the rifle for the time you move out of California or the laws are invalidated.

There's a reason OP sent it out of state instead of slapping a fin grip on it. |

OP, which model specifically does your son have? Colt LE6920? LE6940?
Simply stating Colt M4 conjures up select-fire capabilities

Like I said, OP sent it out of state for a reason, so we're missing two key pieces of info here - the exact rollmark and reason it left the state instead of getting a fin. |

A complete unmolested Colt M4? Rather than mod it, I would just burry it in the backyard and build a new AR with your son.

All firearms with a "bullet button" style magazine release are considered firearms that do not have a fixed magazine. Unless the firearm is a registered assault weapon with a bullet button (BBRAW), there is no reason to have a "bullet button" style magazine release installed on the firearm. In addition, having a "bullet button" style magazine release installed on a featureless semi-auto centerfire rifle may cause confusion with a CA LEO that may encounter it due to the change of it's status in 2017 and may cause them to confiscate it, until it's status is cleared up.

The stock can be locked into the desired position. No mater what stock it is there is probably a good DIY solution out there that is free or a $1 that won't screw anything up.
Thread protector or muzzle brake to replace the flash hidder. And replace the grip with one that has a fin. The whole thing can be done for $20. If he's wanting something more useable look into a fin grip with a thumb shelf or sparrow dynamics or resurgent arms grip. And an ambidextrous safety. I like the safety that sparrow dynamics makes because you can adjust the clock position and it is super easy to use with your trigger finger. |
