    Bayonet lugs on new uppers, legal or not?

    What is the legality on bayonet lugs on AR uppers? If an issue, best remedy?

    There are no CA laws/regulations that restricts a firearm from having a bayonet lug or bayonet installed on it.

    Therefore...

    It is 100% CA legal for any type of firearm to have a bayonet lug or bayonet installed on it.

      As mentioned above, Ca doesnt care. It was only an issue during the 1994-2004 federal assault weapons ban as it counted as an "evil feature."

        CA's AWB laws don't consider a bayonet lug to be a ban-able "military style feature".

        That was utilized in the federal ban and is currently still considered a ban-able feature in the state AWB's for Massachusetts, New Jersey, and New York.

          One theory on why democrat's opposed rifles with a bayonet lug was;
          if a USA government merges with a foreign or foreign nations and some object to losing sovereignty. They might pick up arms to stop this transfer of power and if the rifle is a military type. The combatants must be treated as soldiers, governed by the Geneva Converntion.
          If it is a sporting rifle, these same people will be labeled terrorist's and treated accordingly .

            Whomever came up with that theory...

            obviously pulled it out of his tail end.

            Who reasonably expects the US to merge with a foreign country?

              Bro the US is totally gonna merge with Canada and Mexico to form the North American Union. We're gonna have to start using a new currency called the Amero and we're gonna be stuck with guns without bayonet lugs. My uncle heard about it at a poker game, apparently it's gonna happen in two weeks.

                        Maybe your uncle can explain why in a nation who's law is actually written ,"the right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed "...
                        Did pass a law against owning rifle's equipped with a provision to attach a bayonet ?
                        Better yet you seem like a smart guy . Why did the democrat party pass this law?

                              Bayonets or lugs have never been banned or a feature under CA law. You were confused.
