    I want ... how do I get?

    From KTOG Site:

    However, the legal minds over on calguns.net have figured out a few mods to make the PLR16 CA legal.

    Prior to importation into CA, the PLR16 needs to be configured...
    #1) so it will no longer be considered an "assault weapon"
    #2) so that it is exempt from the CA DOJ BOF approved list of handguns.

    So, what is done is a magazine lock is installed onto the PLR16 and a bobsled (0 round magazine) is locked into place.
    This renders the PLR16 into a single-shot pistol.
    Since, it is now a single-shot pistol, the PLR16 can be legally imported into CA and transfered by a CA FFL dealer.
    After it is transfered, CA law allows the owner of the single-shot pistol to modify it into a semi-auto pistol with a fixed 10 round magazine.
    The Kel-Tec PLR16 modified with a magazine lock and a 10 round magazine, is not considered an "assault weapon", therefore it is CA legal.

    Current magazine lock available in CA for the PLR16/SU16 is a "bullet button" type, which allows a person to utilize the magazine release by using a tool (tip of a bullet) to operate it.
    Seriously ... I can't find the referenced CalGuns material, how-to, whatever. Where do I go, dealer/FFL wise?

    The Kel-Tec PLR16 needs to be made into a single-shot pistol, prior to importation into CA.

    In needs to be made into a single-shot pistol, in order to be exempt from the approved list.
    Installation of a magazine lock/bullet button and a 0 round magazine/bobsled, will make it a single-shot pistol.

    Kel-Tec SU16/PLR16/PLR22 bullet buttons are available.

    After the single-shot pistol is 4473/DROS's and you pick it up after the 10 day wait, you can legally modify the pistol into a semi-auto pistol with a fixed 10 round or less magazine.
    This is done by removing the 0 round magazine/bobsled and using 10 round or less magazines.

    The magazine lock/bullet button must always be installed, while it is in CA.

      Thanks you, Quiet. I sort of understand all of that already though.

      I think was pretty explicit that I was hoping to find a recommendation for dealer or FFL willing to assist with this procedure. If that was not clear, let it be so now. To go further, I am really looking for a NorCal-based solution.

        Actually you were pretty explicit that you did NOT understand the process, because that's what I thought as well... then I read your comment, rechecked the initial post and noticed the FFL question tacked onto the end.

        No big deal though, happens all the time around here!

        As far as an ACTUAL FFL that can help you out with the transfer process, I can't help you, because I'm in SoCal. What I can help you out with is recommending you put your location in your profile (upper right hand corner of all your posts) OR include it here with your question - NorCal is a BIG place!

        Good luck with your search either way - these are pretty easy to import as long as you get confirmation that your FFL will import a single-shot, roster exempt pistol!

          You could call the guys over at Norse Armory, they are in Woodland just NW of Sacramento and deal with stuff with single shot sleds.

            Wouldn't it be a matter of finding someone outside of California to do the mods before it could be shipped into the state?

            If so, here is a list of California friendly, out of state FFL's.

              It really helps if you can narrow your location a bit. Nor cal could be Morgan Hill or the Oregon border.

              The wise, learn from the mistakes of others.
              The smart, learn from their own mistakes.
              The others, well......they just never learn.

                I also know an FFL in West Sac who would do the transfer once it has been Californicated.

                  I suppose that post-Californication, I am looking for an FFL in the Sacramento area. Thanks for all comments so far.

                    1. Buy a bullet button from member "thunderbolt" on here.
                    2. Buy a bobsled magazine or make your own.
                    3. email or call mark @ marksarmory.com, explain you need those items installed prior to shipping to CA (PLR16 is $475 +shipping)
                    4. Have your PLR16 shipped to Bob Snellings Firearms (in Sac)

                          Just call Matt and John at Norse armory. The Website is www.norsearmory.net. They will be able to help you and are only a few minutes up I-5.

                              PLR-22 in stock, single shotted and ready to roll, $479. PLR-16 is still out of stock but would run around $750, just don't know when they'll get in.
