This video explains how California residents can legally convert an AR pistol into a configuration that avoids the state's Short Barreled Rifle (SBR) ban by registering it as an 'Any Other Weapon' (AOW) with the ATF. The process involves starting with a fixed-magazine AR pistol, obtaining an AOW tax stamp, and configuring it with specific features like a vertical foregrip and an overall length under 26 inches. This AOW status then allows for conversion to a rifle and back to the AOW configuration without violating state SBR laws.
