    Question about 922r

    Can I purchase a tube extension and just own it without putting it on and still be legal ? Turkish semi auto so i'd have to change out too many parts but i'd like to have it for when I go out of state. TIA

    922(r) was and is directed at importers...

    ...to my knowledge, there's never been 922(r) charges directed toward an individual user. BATFE letter indicating the above is on the FAL Files.

    No worries.

      Thanks , I pretty much understand it as being can't add one but I want one for when we go to NV. Just need to know if it was able to be owned. I have pistol grip so was thinking it has to be 5+1 only ?

        922(r) is a federal law, so California v. Nevada is immaterial.

          yeah I understood that was just wondering could I own it legally if it isn't installed here in Cali. Put it on there , take it off here and store. I get leery about some of these stupid arse laws , clowns may say ownership is illegal or something.

            CA large capacity magazine laws makes it CA illegal (felony) to increase the magazine capacity of a fixed tubular magazine, on a semi-auto shotgun or pump-action shotgun, to over 10 rounds. [PC 32310(a)]

            CA large capacity magazine conversion kit laws makes it CA illegal (misdemeanor) to make, import, or transfer magazine parts that could be used to increase the magazine capacity of a fixed tubular magazine, on a semi-auto shotgun or pump-action shotgun, to over 10 rounds. [PC 32311(a)]

            Which means as long as you are not increasing the magazine capacity to 11+ rounds, then it is CA legal to do so.

            CA DOJ measures magazine capacity on a fixed tubular magazine by using the shell length marked by the manufacturer.
            Example...
            The Stoeger M3500 semi-auto shotgun is marked for 12Gauge 3.5" shells, so 3.5" shells are used to determine that shotgun's magazine capacity.


            Lever-action shotguns with fixed tubular magazines are exempt from the CA large capacity magazine laws. [PC 16740(c)]
