    Yes because Rimfire is exempt.

        Mine is featureless. Never over estimate the ability of a LEO to understand polititian writen legal language.

          you might have an issue getting a FFL to accept it though, a lot of them are paranoid
          "It is currently CA legal to modify a double-action revolver into a single-action revolver and modify a single-action revolver into a double-action revolver.

          CA DOJ BOF stance on modifying handguns only applies to dimensionally compliant bolt-action single-shot pistols and dimensionally compliant break-open single-shot pistols.
          ^It does not apply to revolvers, manually operated repeating pistols, and semi-auto pistols." ~~ Quiet

            Under PC 30515(a)(1), a lower is

            1. Not semiautomatic, because you could use a bolt-action upper.
            2. Not centerfire, because you could use a rimfire upper.
            3. Not a semiautomatic centerfire rifle that does not have a fixed magazine, and therefore not an assault weapon.

            Under DOJ's final regulations, it's also not an assault weapon when separated from an upper.

            Under current law you can build rimfire rifles anyway you want; although the PC30515(a) pistol definition does not exempt rimfire.
