ar22 pistol build?

[Sir Christopolis]

Looking into possibly building a dedicated ar (pistol). I know for a rimfire rifle you don't need a bullet button but was also curious as to the exact length and other parameters I need to follow for this to be legal. IE considered a rifle so has to be 30 inches or longer, and also if anyone has any good builds they have previously done so I can have some sort of guidelines to go by, thanks in advance

Still need a BB if it's a pistol. There's no rimfire exception for pistols or rather the AW pistol description does not specifically state "centerfire".

Looking for people who have built smaller (pistol like) ars chambered in 22lr!

Needs bb because of: threaded barrel and mag well outside of pistol grip and etc.

Because of CA unsafe handgun laws, it needs to be built from an 80% receiver into a dimensionally compliant single-shot pistol or acquired as a functional dimensionally compliant single-shot pistol.

dimensionally compliant = minimum 6" barrel length + minimum 10.5" overall length

Because of CA assault weapon laws, a .22LR AR style pistol needs to operate from a fixed magazine (maglock + 10 or less round magazine) in order to be CA legal.

Ahhhh thank you, just trying to acquire information and see what/if any my course of action will be.

This is right at the border of legal...

>10.5"
6.5" overall barrel length with muzzle brake (not flash hider)
Fixed magazine
Magazine pinned and epoxied to 10 rounds

That's a beaut. The pistol only needs to meet those dimensional requirements when it's 1st built as a single shot. After that you can shorten it to whatever you like.
