Calm down, Jicko...
There are plenty of ways this could be just fine.
The Carbon-15 is off-list, but all the XM-15 rifles are on the list.
It could be a sealed-up Bushmaster.
It could be a registered rifle.
The friend could be out of state and he's doing his HW.

I dont know what the model is, but im geussing its a xm-15. I know those are a no go. He got it in 89-90, so did bushmaster make any other ar rifles back then? Im an AK guy and dont know **** about AR's. Hes a cop so dont worry, nothin illegal is gonna happen.Comment

If it is an XM-15 and was registered I believe he will have to sell it threw an FFL with an AW license. I may be wrong. If he is out of state it won't matter. He can do as he pleases but not sell the lower to a CA resident.Comment

It's probably not worth the hassle, since it's almost certainly an XM-15.
Just build something here for yourself.

If he's selling it cheap, buy everything off of him except the lower receiver. Then, buy an OLL and assemble it with CA legal configuration.
