Handstop = foregrip?

[raitheslacker]

I have a semi auto shotgun with pistol grip. Per CA law you can have one "evil" feature.

Per Cali law does a handstop equal a foregrip?

Can you hold it like a grip?

Nope. I know it would be common sense that it wouldnt be considered one but Cali laws are retarded and arent based on common sense.

I'm interested in this answer as well... I think I might use one on my pistol build.

I believe you can have a forward grip on a semi auto shotgun I had a vertical grip on my saiga 12 and was told it was good to go. you mite have better luck in the shotgun section also

My bad wrong section lol. But per Cali law you can only have one evil feature. ex: pistol grip with no telescoping stock or foregrip etc.

Is a hand stop considered a Vertical Fore Grip ? Would be the question right?

Correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't the law require it to also have a folding or telescoping stock in order for it to be considered an "Assault Weapon"?
