Forms of california legal AR's

I'm sure there's lots of posts on this but last I checked and it's been a while but if you have some sort of mag lock such as an ARMaglock you can have a pistol grip and if you use something like a thorssden stock you can have a removeable magazine. Am I right on those? And what's the deal with magazines larger than 10rds?

Armaglock, everything else is good, pistol grip, flash hider, adjustable stock, forend grip. No 10+ mags.

If everything comes off, then mag release ok. And 10+ mags.

I have one with a thordsen which doesn't need the maglock?
and another with a maglock with a pistol grip not sure about either on the flash hiders or muzzlebreaks not really sure which is which.

When I built mine I used a brand name muzzle break so it wouldn't be a question. Some are flash and brakes so be careful. Picture?

[Redeyedrider]

Mag lock with all features and limited to 10rd

or

Featureless with standard mag release and any mag/drum you want

No brainer if you ask me

on the flash hiders or muzzlebreaks not really sure which is which.

^^^ Important to know. Take the time to figure it out.

The Thordsen gets you part of the way to featureless (no pistol grip, no adjustable stock), but you could still easily have an AW if you have a flash hider and detachable mag.

and another with a maglock with a pistol grip not sure about either on the flash hiders or muzzlebreaks not really sure which is which.

You really need to be damn sure of your muzzle device's status as to whether or not it's a flash hider on a rifle you want to be featureless. If you have any doubt at all, take it off.

looks like it's time to buy a couple muzzle brakes, thx

I don't see how anyone could be sure of their muzzle device. CADOJ has never really clarified what is a break and what is a flash hider.

About all we think we know is a A2 birdcage is a flash hider. After that your best guidance comes from the marketing material of the manufacturer. If it's advertised as a break then it most likely is. CADOJ has said marketing material plays into the decision.

One gray or maybe not so gray area is hybrid devices. Some are sold as reducing flash.


If you are worried buy a break or even better a thread protector and swap it on.

Featureless only for me if not RAW, here is my latest

How about the thread protectors I see I would think those are ca non evil

[rspar]

Answered my question thread protector ok.

[rspar]

Do you need a washer or crush washer with a thread protector? or maybe just some blue loctite?

Don't waste blue lock tight on your muzzel device. Really it's useless on anything that gets hot.

There are a few manufactures that say use rocksett as it has a higher temp rating but really you should just get a standard break call it a day.

I'm going with a strike industries triple crown and an oppressor when needed.
