Marlin Model 60 illegal to bring into CA, correct? (No: .22 tube exempt from LCM)

[Gryff]

Someone is asking me if they can bring their Marlin Model 60 when they move to California. This is a tube-fed .22LR rifle with a 15-18 shot capacity in the tube.

The >10 capacity makes it illegal to bring in, correct?

Tube fed rimfire is exempt. OK to bring.

Penal Code 16740 (was 12020 (c)(25)) defines "large capacity magazine"

As used in this part, "large-capacity magazine" means any
ammunition feeding device with the capacity to accept more than 10
rounds, but shall not be construed to include any of the following:
(a) A feeding device that has been permanently altered so that it
cannot accommodate more than 10 rounds.
(b) A .22 caliber tube ammunition feeding device.
(c) A tubular magazine that is contained in a lever-action
firearm.

There might be some exceptions. You may want to see if the Sunnyvale & Los Angeles magazine bans cover tube fed rimfires.
