But this is according to the dealer that I buy most of my AR stuff through, who also happens to work for CA DOJ. I'm not sure I understand it myself but basically what he told me is that once the magazine is removed you now have a weapon capable of accepting a magazine of more than 10 rounds and so it is technically illegal. This is such a bizarre state. It sure makes me love my M1A with the preban 20 round mags.
    I believe I know who you are talking about. He is mistaken on the law with regards to Bullet Button type builds.

    There is no "capacity to accept a capacity to accept." Furthermore, there is no "Capacity to accept a magazine over 10 rounds." That's not even in the penal code.

                On a iphone the clip in the middle of the photo looks like other a loading clip for a mosan naget or a carcaino?
                The small mag on the top of the photo is to small to make out,

                  The one on the bottom is for a Mosin. It's the mag top center that I don't recognize.

                    Agreed.

                    This runs the risk of not being considered 'two mags flippable for convenience'.

                    And once the mag setup is regarded as holding over 10 rounds, using it in a fixed-mag configuration triggers AW status.

                    If you have hicaps, go use a MonsterMan grip...
