    Refresh my memory: is the AR15 Lower restricted as CA. Compliant as long as it’s assembled as .22LR? Or is it exempt because it’s configured as a .22LR Carbine.
    Rimfire rifles are exempt from CA assault weapons laws for rifles.

    Rimfire pistols are not exempt from CA assault weapons laws for pistols.

    Therefore...

    A semi-auto rimfire rifle can have any feature, as long as it does not violate CA generally prohibited weapons laws (DD, MG, SBR, SBS, silencer, multi-trigger burst activator, etc).

      So as long as I keep the .22 Upper “married” to my M4E1 Lower with a Collapsible Stock I’m GTG?

          ��A2 Stock with that beautiful Fin Pistol Grip and Brake it is, that’s how I shoot my other Evil AR’s anyway.

            Highly recommend getting the pressure cap with the CMMG 22LR upper.
            Enhance 22LR AR reliability. Our AR22 patented buffer plug optimizes bolt carrier pressure for CMMG/Atchisson/Ciener style bolt systems.


            I found it improved reliability and, should you separate the upper and lower, it is very obvious which one is for the 22LR.

              Get CMMG kit and order a dedicated barrel.

                  If you want to build a sick AR-22 then I would suggest:

                  1) Beyer/CMMG dedicated barrel
                  2) CMMG (RTB) dedicated bolt
                  3) Bore Buddy pressure plug
                  4) Bore Buddy CH insert
                  5) Better-Mag magazine adaptor
                  6) M&P 15-22 magazines

                  Then build out using whatever milspec parts you have laying around, or with gucci parts if you have $$. The above combo will create a super accurate build that has full AR15 function such as LRBHO.

                  I did a steel shoot with my build last night and it was a blast.

                      You can buy those deflectors yet as add ons for the ARs Some people say they help empties from hitting you. I have never found it to a problem..Maybe they are more useful to the leftys that shoot them..

                      I like the retro A1s

                      Here is my M16A2 clone I assembled, with GI parts and a M16A2 clone lower and CMMG BCG, Barrel..But since I am no longer in CA, mine has the Franklin Binary..Lots of fun..

                        Slowly collecting parts to build my dedicated. I like the look of the A2 clone above but will build a copy of my M4 ARs I have.

                        If anyone needs a dedicated 22 barrel, Primary Arms has the CMMG 16" M4 profile with FSB and the same in a 20" gov profile. Right around $210.

                            Curious..Why NOT..They are 100% legal..They are not Full Auto Machine Gun lowers in any way shape or form, takes a little more than a roll stamp to do that trick...

                            10s of thousands sold legally..Not against the Law in any way..Well maybe in CA... By your thinking the Vendors that manufacture, stock and sell Clone Lowers like PSA, Brownels, and many others, mine came from PSA..Are all going to go to Club Fed soon, or would have already been there..

                            I do not mind the looks of the Classic M16A1, M4, I just think the A2s are the sexiest looking of them all..,LOL
