APPENDIX B DPMS ALL

[KIMBER8400]

According to the chart below If a semi auto rifle is longer than 26" and is AR type And was not registered as AW and listed in either appx b or c is violative of the penal code.

Question, DPMS is listed in appx B and it's AR type, then how is it that there are post ban ca legal models?

Per CA case law...
The markings need to match the exact make/model of what is list and the CA legal variants do not match the exact make/model of what is banned. Since, it is not make/model banned, they just need to be configured so that they do not features that would classify them as an assault weapon.

Examples:
(make) DPMS (model) Panther = make/model banned
(make) DPMS (model) Oracle = not make/model banned & can be made CA legal
(make) Colt (model) AR-15 = make/model banned
(make) Colt (model) M-4 = not make/model banned & can be made CA legal
(make) Olympic Arms (model) PCR = make/model banned
(make) Olympic Arms (model) MFR = not make/model banned & can be made CA legal

Just to clarify, a DPMS upper with DPMS lower that says panther arms is illegal?

I think this chart is outdated because nothing in the penal code 30500-30530, which repealed the 1700 series, states about DPMS however the chart specifically names DPMS.

Case law - Kasler - established a longer list than was provided in Roberti-Roos.

Just the DPMS lower.

On AR15 type firearms:
1. The lower receiver is considered the firearm and is what is make/model banned.
2. The upper receiver is just a part and is not make/model ban.
