CA compliance question

[AvyDriver]

My AR is CA compliant with a bullet button. Does the rifle have to have a mag installed to be ca compliant. For instance if I had my rifle in it's case without a mag in it is that wrong? Or in it's scabbard in my backpack in a legal place to carry firearms without the mag in it.

I looked all over and couldn't find the answer and I really don't want to assume. My search-Fu is weak.

It does not need a magazine to be compliant.

Correct. It's ok not to have a mag in because as soon as you do it is locked in place by the BB.

Asked and answered.

And again, people, let's try for better thread titles. This one would be more useful if it were something like 'do mag-locked rifles always need a mag installed?' That was your question - put it in the title.
