CA Compliance:
California compliance - These are harder than normal so please expect a slightly longer lead time to properly pin the stock.
- Status: Legal to own in California.
- Configuration: Featureless, built by WBT: grip fin in place of the pistol grip, stock pinned in a fixed position, flash hider removed and replaced with a thread protector (a muzzle brake is an optional upgrade). The magazine release works normally, so reloads are the same as anywhere else.
