Never unless the roster goes away.

Two weeks? Is this in the approval process by CADOJ? That would be cool if it were. Last time I checked it wasn't close. Not even the 19RTF2 and 23RTF2 are approved yet.

Awesome. Pre-order already in



Really though, as others have said, it's been discussed quite a bit and there have been posts that Glock has already said they will not change or make a different CA-compliant Glock Gen 4. Of course things may change in the future, but this is what I also believe.

Therefore, the only ways to buy one right now if you're a regular CA resident & civilian are to either become a LEO, find somebody who's PPT'ing one, or do an intrafamily transfer if you can.

Last I heard they didn't make it to the roster and I thought any new weapons introduced to the roster have to have the micro-stamp on the firing pin which is not yet produced by any company.

The microstamping requirement has not gone into effect due to patent issues.




Penal Code 12126
(7) Commencing January 1, 2010, for all semiautomatic pistols that are not already listed on the roster pursuant to Section 12131, it is not designed and equipped with a microscopic array of characters that identify the make, model, and serial number of the pistol, etched or otherwise imprinted in two or more places on the interior surface or internal working parts of the pistol, and that are transferred by imprinting on each cartridge case when the firearm is fired, provided that the Department of Justice certifies that the technology used to create the imprint is available to more than one manufacturer unencumbered by any patent restrictions. The Attorney General may also approve a method of equal or greater reliability and effectiveness in identifying the specific serial number of a firearm from spent cartridge casings discharged by that firearm than that which is set forth in this paragraph, to be thereafter required as otherwise set forth by this paragraph where the Attorney General certifies that this new method is also unencumbered by any patent restrictions. Approval by the Attorney General shall include notice of that fact via regulations adopted by the Attorney General for purposes of implementing that method for purposes of this paragraph. The microscopic array of characters required by this section shall not be considered the name of the maker, model, manufacturer's number, or other mark of identification, including any distinguishing number or mark assigned by the Department of Justice, within the meaning of Sections 12090 and 12094.
