Frequently Asked Questions

What changed for AR-15s with bullet buttons in California on January 1, 2017?

As of January 1, 2017, California's new assault weapons ban regulations reclassified any rifle equipped with a bullet button as an assault weapon, removing its previous compliance status.

What are the risks of registering an AR-15 with a bullet button in California?

Registering an AR-15 with a bullet button is a trap; the regulations prohibit changing the device post-registration. Furthermore, registration creates a database that could facilitate future confiscation, potentially leading to felony charges.

What are compliant options for AR-15 owners in California after the 2017 ban?

Compliant options include 'featureless' AR-15 builds, which omit features like pistol grips and collapsible stocks, or installing 'mag-lock' devices that require disassembling the firearm's action to remove the magazine.

Is it legal to modify a bullet button AR-15 to a standard magazine release before registering it in California?

No, it is illegal to change to a standard magazine release before registration. Doing so would create an unregistered assault weapon, leading to potential arrest and severe legal penalties.
