    California "Featureless" semi auto ARs and others

    I regularly get asked questions by those living in Free America and Canadaicon how we prisoners in Kalifornistan (or Californication) can have semi autos that use detachable high capacity magazines.

    Any semi-auto rifle (centerfire), that has a fixed magazine of 10 rounds or less, can have all the evil features it wants. A bullet button or RAD lock makes a magazine fixed, as it needs a "tool" to remove the magazine. (a punch or bullet nose).

    Evil features are:
    pistol grip (either front or rear)
    collapsible or folding stock
    flash hider
    grenade or flare launcher

    A semi auto (centerfire) rifle that has none of the above evil features, you can use a detachable magazine of any capacity. They can be of greater than 10 round capacity, IF you personally possessed them legally, IN California, PRIOR to 1-1-2000. The M1icon Carbine, Saiga sporter, Mini-14/30, and some M1As are classic examples of guns that are "featureless." Hammerhead grips and Kydex paddles on other weapons are a way of making them featureless, as far as pistol grip. Muzzle brakes replace flash hiders, and collapsible stocks are pinned.

    My "featureless stable, Left to right:
    1) PTR91A3, 7.62x51mm with Redfield Revenge 3x9 "Dial N Shoot" BDC scope
    2) Colt 602/SP1 clone 5.56x45mm 1/9" twist barrel on a Nodak Spud 601 OLL
    3) Saiga IZ132 7.62x39mm With Tapco HG, Gas Piston, FCG, and Tri-Delta brake, and vintage Tasco "Accu-dot" 1 red dot.
    4) M4gery, Anderson forged lower with Bushmaster 1/9" twist chrome lined barrel
    5) USGI 6 digit Inland M1 Carbine, post war rebuilt with Underwood barrel ME of "0"

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.
