Ruger LC380 vs LC380CA

[Gun1]

Guns.com has 2 separate listings for the Ruger LC380 and the Ruger LC380CA. However, Ruger lists the firearm as the same, the 3253 model. Therefore, I'm wondering if I could DROS a Ruger LC380 here in California or if it has to say LC380CA? Thanks

And then you don't have to worry about getting the right gun

The cheaper gun on Guns.com is the old SKU 3219, which has been discontinued. It was a $220 gun back in the day. https://gun.deals/search/apachesolr_search/3219

Who knows if Guns.com really has it in stock - in any case that is not the current roster version that is the old roster version, no longer on roster
