    I do not know, but I can tell you that I used to have one, and it was a jamming POS. I tried every ammo made, and it jammed, jammed, jammed. I never made it through that 100 round whatever it was without multiple jams and wanting to smash that thing to pieces against the rocks. Maybe their better now, maybe I just had a lemon, don't know, but if not, save yourself some aggravation and pass on it.

        YES.
        The Calico M100 rifle is 100% CA legal.

        You can find used ones for around $450-500 and the 100 round drum for around $125-150, the drum will have to be acquired as a mag kit and made into a 10 round magazine or kept as parts.

                Pistols are also do-able, its just a bit more complicated.

                  Yes you can have 2 C&R 03 FFL's; 1 in California and 1 in a different state.

                    Yup, they require a mag lock.

                      Sweet. I almost bought one back then but went with a Feather Industries AT-22. I sold it and wish that I hadn't.

                          If you still own the Calico 100 round drums, you can legally use them.

                            Yup!
                            I had mine up for sale a couple years ago, but decided I wanted to keep it. Plus I didn't want anybody getting in trouble by building the rebuild kit.
