    Bayonet on a shotgun Legal?

    Hello everyone. I've been a member here for a while but haven't visited since mid last year. But anyway on to my question.

    I got myself a Mossberg Maverick in hopes of using the basic action and barrel for a trench gun tribute . Since I am changing so much I didn't see the point in paying for the 500. I ordered the necessary parts from Mossberg to convert the action side to fit the vintage corn cob style stock set. I also got a proper mossberg heat shield. And a stock set off ebay. All that I need now is a Bayonet lug. Nc Star Sells one online that will work. Its doesnt mount the old m1917 but it will mount the m7 or m9 bayonet. I don't plan to use it. It's just a " look cool item" AM I legal to go ahead or is there some law against it. Or for that matter any of what I would like to do. With California you can't be too careful.

    Your thoughts. Part link below.

    Yes, bayonets are legal on any gun.

    Semi-related side note, it's illegal to conceal carry a fixed blade in CA, so don't go walking in to walmart with a sword bayonet stuffed in your pants.

      It's fine, there aren't bayonet restrictions here.

            You coulda just got a Mossberg 590 and it woulda come with all that. Bayonet is extra:



            The bayonet you are looking for is the M7.

              Yeah the gun I bought was on sale for like 200 and the 590 was double that. Since I just want the basic receiver and barrel I couldn't see paying that. But nice gun.

                    quotes are generally directed at the person posting, otherwise they're used for information purposes or general questions.

                    In this case, I'm trying to cause grief for mr. mitch, because that is likely him, and he looks like a badass, so don't mess with the Mitch.

                        Yes.

                        Bayonet lugs/bayonets were never illegal under CA laws.

                            Did you track down a wood stock set as well? I don't know of any Mavericks that came with wood. That old style wood can be found on eBay but usually for over $100 for the set. Also I think you have to change out the action bar setup on Mavericks or newer Mossbergs to use older forends.

                              Looks good!
                              The leather sling end ties into the wood color really nice.
