@jamestheairsofter its a mag release that can only be activated by sticking a bullet or something else skinny in it... you cant press it with your finger
@OfficialDannyDilfaco also Pleasington would not be offering to settle out of court and pay his 6,000 bond back to him if they were illegal in the configuration of a BB and "flash hider". A won court case is pretty much an "unwritten" they are "ok" not to mention what I said before about meeting DOJ written law. Just like m16 style carriers do not constitute a "full auto" part in a semi auto AR. My SGL23 came straight from arsenal with a BB and a comp right off the shelf.
@OfficialDannyDifalco great my dad has his FFL and I build rifles with and for him. Bullet buttons ARE legal "Haynie vs. Pleasanton". CaDOJ will not go after BB. M1A here they call them compensators not flash hiders just as they call them comps on ARs here. BB meet the definition put out by the DOJ for fixed mags. I've built for and shoot my ARs with LEOs here and see at least 10 ARs at every range here with BB once again go to calguns . net.
@379peterbilt530 No. The receiver is still banned. Even though the reciever is the same exact as any stag, dpms, or spikes. Just has a different name stamped on it. This is what we get when we let democrats make the laws.
@OfficialDannyDifalco um yes it is. The bullet button allows you to have those evil features. Look at the calgun charts for more info and shhhhh they aren't called flash hiders they are compensators and are allowed to be removable as long as the barrel is 16" if it's a 14.5" like my BCM it has to be "pinned" in place.
@elox02 I've never seen a ATF letter stating the bullet button is approved to make the magazine non removable. Which it still clearly is. Any yes they are called flash hiders. And i already know the barrel lengths and regulations. I work for a FFL dealer in NY and sell about 15 guns a day.
@OfficialDannyDifalco Where do you get your information, you dont need to be 21 to buy a lower in CA. You need only be 18 for rifles and shotguns, 21 for handguns.
@ShiftNMove Where do you get yours? I work for a FFL dealer in NY and sell about 15 guns a day. A stripped lower reciever for a ar15/ak47, even if it has a stock on it is considered a "other" on the ATF 4473 form. Which requires you to be 21 to purchase. Why? because a stripped lower reciever did not leave the factory registered/labeled a RIFLE. So their for it can be made into a ar15 pistol.
calguns. net /calgunforum/archive/index.php/t-176636.html
@OfficialDannyDifalco Interesting, so you need to be 21 for a stripped lower and 18 for a completed rifle straight from the factory? That's messed up. Thanks for the clarification. I was under the impression that the lower was still considered a rifle...
the bullet button is such a ridiculous thing! I mean, it doesn't matter how many rounds you can have in your clip or to have that thing installed because a person who is going to use those guns for bad im guessing aint going to abide the law and install a bullet button and cali legal mag before going to shoot up or rob a place!
When I bought my lower, I had to be 21. I think its because when you buy a lower, you can also turn it into a AR pistol. Which you need to be 21 for in California.
@ILoveToKickShit You need to be 18 to buy a "long gun". A long gun is a rifle with a barrel over 16in, and a shotgun with a barrel over 18.5in. Also the shotgun needs to have a "shoulder stock" cannot just have a pistol grip. Ex. Mossberg 500 JIC.
@SuperNolie see... you people seem to forget that no matter what happens unless the earth actualy does become inhabitable that country folk will survive and that you fucking city dwellers wont know what to do with out your i-phone.... enjoy the apocalypse fag, I know i will.
@MyCrackRock No its not. An M4 has a 14.5in barrel, and has a safe/semi/burst fire control group. And a M4A1 has a 14.5in barrel and a safe/semi/full fire control group. This is an Ar15 which has a 16 in barrel and only a safe/semi fire control group.
@LooksLegitBro i know your was one month ago but the ARs come with the magazine release button. But in California because of stupid gun laws and stuff, a thing called a bullet button needs to be installed. Basically it's installed where the mag release is and it doesn't allow the user to remove the magazine. The only way to remove the magazine is by using a bullet or a tool to depress the mag release.
Hey Gary. I live in CALI ALSO & plan on getting an AR-15 with .22LR conversion capabilities. You put out a good video regarding this - Just like in the past when you shot up the EX's Jeans with the Ruger 345 of which I own also & feel very comfortable with & also the Ruger P90. I may just get the S&W version (when it goes on sale) already put together. Thanks Gary. Sincerely , JAMES.
Ya the whole bullet button thing is kinda bs and a grey area my buddy had an AK47 with bullet button installed and got it confiscated by a ranger while we were out shooting at a local spot where everyone goes shooting
I know you are not a laywer or a politician, but I need a bit of help. Is the AR-15 still considered and "Type 3 Category Assault Rifle" due to it having the evil features and falls under theRoberti-Roos Assault Weapons Control Act of 1989? If it did do you have to send letters to the DOJ for special approval and registration. I am planning to purchase a AR-15 in the near future and needed some help. All help is appreciated.
here's a quick overview. the whole definition of "assault rifle" hinges on "detachable magazine". a magazine that can be removed with a tool is not considered "detachable". a bullet a is considered a "tool". a "bullet button" is a modified magazine release designed to require a bullet for magazine removal. so, a rifle with otherwise illegal features is legal as long as the magazine is not detachable. there are other "no go's" such as too short, and certain guns are banned by name
if you go to calguns dot net they have a more comprehensive description of the laws and a list of the guns banned by name, but what i posted should be a pretty accurate overview, don't just take my word for it though, i'm just some guy on youtube.
You can tell that to the idiot cops once they confiscate your gun and JAIL YOU for Suspicion of owning a Assault Rifle and then releasing you after they found out its a legal AR-15. That is why I was asking is there any letter I can receive from the DOJ to sHOW TO THE idiot COPS who are poorly uneducated about the bullet button and other legal features the moment they start talking to me.
@killacomeback An assault rifle is a fully automatic rifle. The only people who call semi-auto rifles assault weapons are uneducated liberals/democrats. An AR15 is a semi-auto rifle(although it can be converted to a fully or semi. but then it would be called a M4, M4A1, or M16 depending on other parts).
Great video! Down to earth and not to super technical weapons spec. I did the same thing and got a Stag! Now I am addicted and want to do a couple more with different features! Cool!
Don't waste your money on video editing software. Use it to trick that AR out even more. Liked the rawness of this video because it made it feel more honest and sincere.
Hey Brody!!! So you said you need to get the bullet button asap. You don't buy the gun with it already installed? Also, I've been hearing a lot about the rad lock bullet button I believe its called. Have you heard if that's legal or not?
P.S.- My Howa will be here next sat., we need to hit up the river bar when I get it...
great video!too bad you live in commie kalifornia though!that bullet button and 10 round magazine thing is a bunch of crap!i live in florida and have a concealed weapons permit(easy to get if your not a felon and take a safety class and do your paperwork)and can just walk into any gun store and buy as many semi-automatics of any kind that i want everyday of the week!we can even have full-auto ,suppressors,short barreled rifles(with federal tax stamp)without trouble and no wild west!
@RandySykesIV Right because the lack of high cap mag and a push button release makes bullets kill less effectively lol. So whats the prevent you guys from just running across the border into Nevada and buying a real lower and some 30 round mags ? I bet people do that huh, I know I would.
@pac6010 I'm not sure if Nevada dealers sell high capacity magazine, all you need to know that its illegal to have a magazine higher than ten rounds and a "detachable" magazine with "evil features".
Having a bullet button changes the AR15 from assault riffle to just a semi-auto riffle in terms California Law, but it increases reloading time, which defeats the purpose of having a magazine. Sorry if I got to boring haha
@RandySykesIV Ya I was just pointing out how stupid that sounds, so it takes an extra 5 seconds to load a mag, and that somehow makes the gun less "evil" as you put it. You just have to sit back in aww of the stupidity of politicians sometimes. A semi auto rifle is still a semi auto rifle, even if you have a 100 round drum mag on it, that doesn't make it automatic. Anyways look at every other states where you can own high cap mags, are we somehow more moral people than you ? Of course not.
Did your lower receiver come already with a bullet button installed? If you order online do they ship to your FFL without the BB installed or does your FFL need a gunsmith to work it? I'm assuming if you were to buy it say at Turners, they sell the lower receiver with bb installed. Is it 5.56/223? Or 7.62? Do they sell receivers for both? I'm new to the AR scene sorry for the noob questions
This video was a decent overview of a legal California AR15. Imagine your rifle with this stock that I sell. It may cause you to smile a little bit. Go to the web address below. Please note, you must add the w w w dot before the tacticalrapidfire and add the dot com at the end.
Cool vid. I live in CA and I'm currently trying to build my first AR. How long is your barrel because I know there is a minimum overall length your AR has to be for it to be considered "CA legal"
Very informative. To me (a truly rabid gun enthusiast) it's a tragedy that you guys have allowed your state gov to do all that. I'm not trying to judge you by the way you looked but maybe the cops would be less willing to fuck with you if you looked a little more like a cop and less like a "gangster". What I'm about to tell you is ridiculous but it works...I get away with breaking all sorts of laws (esp. traffic) just by looking clean cut and cop like.
I am thinking about building my first AR if anyone would be kind enough to list a few good links. Midway USA has a good page on building an AR. The more research the better. THANKS and God bless
nice video bra, I was interested in how the cali legal magazine worked. I get pissed that I can't get a full auto AR for less than $20k but at least Texas lets us have our normal capacity mags
Never Forget!!!! "THESE GUNS ARE LEGAL" remember that... because the more "they" want them gone the more "our" vocabulary changes to meet "their tone" so dont forget brother even in CA the 2nd Amendment of our Beautiful Nation's Constitution states that it is our right as the people to keep and bear arms in order to displace a crocked government who refuses to uphold the Constitution and the best interest of every citizen....Hooah!!! -US Army
California Law makes a distinction between standard AR "magazine releases" and "bullet buttons." A bullet button actuates the magazine latch with the use of a tool, usually the tip of a bullet. This circumvents California statutes regarding "assault weapons." Detachable magazines are restricted, and the "bullet button" nicely circumvents this law without seriously hindering gun function. There's no need to hate on people just wanting to shoot guns.
@coheed00 Believe me, I don't like the gun laws of this state but, compared to other states (New York, Illinois, Hawaii, Guam, Virgin Islands and DC) California gun laws are like a walk in the park, in Hawaii you are not even allowed to use a gun to protect yourself without trying to retreat first. I personally favor the M1 Garand in California, no need to follow the bullshit laws and one that clip pops into place you have 8 rounds of 7.62x63mm ammo that will mess up any baddies day.
@GunsOfThePhoenix VERY GOOD POINT AND TO BE HONEST MY AR-15 IS NOT REALLY MY GO TO GUN ITS MOSTLY FOR KEEPING TRAINING AND SKILL LEVELS ON THE UP AND UP I MAINLY SHOOT MY PISTOL XD 45ACP 5 INCH OR MY MARLIN 336BL 30-30 AND AS FAR AS AN M1 GARAND GOES YOU CANT BEAT A CLASSIC MAN CALI CANT STOP THAT BEAST LOL
im from Montana so ive only had to deal with some relaxed gun laws. whats the difference between a regular civilian AR15 and a CA legal AR15. i thought you just couldnt own one at all.
@shishiromura I believe California laws prohibit "assault weapons." Since "assault weapon" is a term for a class of gun, and not a specific model, they created criteria to determine whether or not a firearm falls into that category. A centerfire rifle that has a detachable magazine and things like a flash hider, thumbhole stock, pistol grip, grenade or flare launcher, or a forward pistol grip are all classified "assault weapon" Magazine capacities are restricted to 10 rounds max.
@shishiromura Guns purchased and legally owned prior to the 1989 assault weapons ban are grandfathered in and are legal, but must be registered with the California Department of Justice.
@Needled247420 im still reasearching into them myself. but CA has a 10rd limit on all firearms for 1 and well the bullet button i guess helps stop public crime buy making it harder to reload, which i guess helps for someone to try and stop them, also so the cops could stop them as they are reloading. also no threaded barrels and NO colts at all. there is a list on non compliant parts on the DOJ website for ca
@TheMunchKinney But there is really nothing stopping someone from taking off the Bullet button and replacing it with a normal Magazine release. Other than some cop noticing it at like a firing range.
As is you having that magazine - if they are going to make a "safety" feature like that BB then they should make it that a three year old couldn't modify it to work normally - just wedge or fuse the tip of that tool in
As for the mag - why make it 10 round limit then allow a modified 30 rd ?? How are they gonna tell the difference!!!
Do the uppers and lowers need to be the same make? Or are they interchangeable? And if I bought a complete lower already assembled and a complete upper, are the assembly pins included? I know these are dumb questions but I'm new to this. I'm thinking about getting an AR. Also, can an M4 upper be put on an AR15 lower?
@randomvalleydude You can usually (almost always) match up uppers and lowers from different companies as long as they are AR-15 models, Lowers have pins built in. And yes M-4 and M-16 uppers will go on AR-15 lowers, (lower is what determines fully auto or semi auto). Difference is M-4 is a 16 inch barrel (most AR-15s are M-4 uppers), M-16 is a 20 inch barrel. 16 inch barrels are the shortest you can legally go without allot of bureaucracy.
It is called a bullet button rather than a mag release button because a bullet button has to have a tool to depress the release button. The tip of a bullet can fit to depress this button. the latter mag release button can be released with just press of finger.
man, instead of worrying about all these bullshit rules, why don't you just move the fuck out of Commiefornia. in most other states, you can walk into a gunshop, and walk out 30 minutes later with a brand new AR15/AK47/whatever the fuck you want, and all the hi-cap mags you can carry.
@Security98 OC empty. Totally TOTALLY pointless in my opinion. :D In NY I have my 30 round mags and it takes TWO evil features to make the scary black rifles illegal. I'd kill myself in CA, I'm just contemplating suicide in NY. xD
A mag release button is part of what makes these guns illegal in Ca. Detachable magazines and high capacity magazines (more than 10 rounds) are a big no no in Cali. With a bullet button the magazine is technically a fixed magazine, and the fact that you have to have an instrument to remove the magazine means it is not a mag release button in the traditional cense. It's just gay bullshit that uptight liberal politicians create to be able to rule with an iron fist.
damn, you are negative as fuck...with that sort of negativity, you come off as one of those people going on a shooting rampage and trust me, the civilized gun community doesn't need anymore heat from authorities. oh and your state fucking sucks as far as gun rights goes. with all the uncontrolled violence going on, your state decides to harass the civilians. wtf?
umm i feel really stupid for asking this but wat is an ar 15 i live in cali and ive heard alot about this so i watched this vid and it just looks like an mi6 except looks like its been modded to be ok in cali
Who honestly gives a flying fuck if its leagl in cali? Reguardless of what they say they have NO power to stop you from having a normal AR. Thats infringement my friend, infringement that could lead to your death because of that bullet button.
good video You should do a step by step on where you got the parts and from ware so others can get them Example I bought the AR lower from Tims guns for 150.00 + tax and so on I think that would help pple who would like one then that way they dont have to deal with the shops that would be reluctant to sell one.That would give them the business. Shout outs are always good to do if you like to do business with certin shops...Just an FYI.
You should move to Oregon and you can legaly have an AR-15 with out all that Calif B.S and and 30 +rnd mags as many as you want to get I orderd a Dpms AR-15 AP4 M4 A3
back in April 20th 2011 Brand new I'm still waitng for it it is on back order because they have been geting more orders in then product being shipped if you can find one here then you better get one quickA gentalmen bought one from Rock River it took 90 days befor he had gotton his.Rock River,Olympic Arms,Bushmaster and colt..
Nice... and what is up with knuckleheads correcting you on what a bullet button is? Morons... they should learn and Google and refrain before spouting off terminology and info that is obviously incorrect. I applaud you for correcting those clowns. I was so pissed about the whole bullet button issue that I went off on a poster who called a magazine a "clip"... oh my gosh... a freaking CLIP?
@ninetyfive300zx - for crying out loud... you got people trying to say bullet buttons don't exist or is not the correct term... it IS... & then there are people who call it a "clip"... it is a "MAGAZINE"... an AR that utilizes a bullet button uses magazines... a "CLIP" is a strip of metal that holds rounds for easier loading, i.e. Mosin Nagants use stripper CLIPS that holds five 7.62 x 54R rounds... sorry to lay into you, but a couple posts correcting the term "bullet button" pissed me off...
@ninetyfive300zx - What's a bullet button again??? Just kidding, LOL! Well, at least you HAVE an AK... I am looking into one, but more likey the AK-platform long gun, the SAIGA in 223/5.56...
Im sure someone has said this already, but you said forward grip which if I'm not mistaken, turns it into an assault rifle again here in Cali. Thanks for the vid
i just want to say thank you for posting this video.. ive been looking into getting an ar15 and i didnt even know about the ca law. this video really helped me get a concept of how to build one. again thank you
@TasteVenganceStudios I would use a Mag-Magnet instead of taking the bullet button apart. Google it, it goes into your current AR-15 bullet button to be used as a regular magazine release.
@TasteVenganceStudios Yes, your lower parts kit will come with a standard mag release button and the bullet button is very easy to remove, but I would not recommend it unless you like prison, Unless of course there is no rule of law, then by all means feel free.
nice vid man its good you do your research so do I.... fuck all the haters TRIPPIN ON THE BULLET BUTTON... thats just what we have to put up with to own a fucking gun in cali man

here's a quick overview. the whole definition of "assault rifle" hinges on "detachable magazine". a magazine that can be removed with a tool is not considered "detachable". a bullet a is considered a "tool". a "bullet button" is a modified magazine release designed to require a bullet for magazine removal. so, a rifle with otherwise illegal features is legal as long as the magazine is not detachable. there are other "no go's" such as too short, and certain guns are banned by name

if you go to calguns dot net they have a more comprehensive description of the laws and a list of the guns banned by name, but what i posted should be a pretty accurate overview, don't just take my word for it though, i'm just some guy on youtube.

You can tell that to the idiot cops once they confiscate your gun and JAIL YOU for Suspicion of owning a Assault Rifle and then releasing you after they found out its a legal AR-15. That is why I was asking is there any letter I can receive from the DOJ to sHOW TO THE idiot COPS who are poorly uneducated about the bullet button and other legal features the moment they start talking to me.

@killacomeback An assault rifle is a fully automatic rifle. The only people who call semi-auto rifles assault weapons are uneducated liberals/democrats. An AR15 is a semi-auto rifle(although it can be converted to a fully or semi. but then it would be called a M4, M4A1, or M16 depending on other parts).

Hey Brody!!! So you said you need to get the bullet button asap. You don't buy the gun with it already installed? Also, I've been hearing a lot about the rad lock bullet button I believe its called. Have you heard if that's legal or not?

@mrtonic69 Its a modified mag release called bullet button. It requires a tool such as a bullet head or screwdriver to release the magazine.
This mod basically makes the AR-15 legal in California.
RandySykesIV 5 months ago
@RandySykesIV Right because the lack of high cap mag and a push button release makes bullets kill less effectively lol. So whats the prevent you guys from just running across the border into Nevada and buying a real lower and some 30 round mags ? I bet people do that huh, I know I would.
pac6010 5 months ago
@pac6010 I'm not sure if Nevada dealers sell high capacity magazine, all you need to know that its illegal to have a magazine higher than ten rounds and a "detachable" magazine with "evil features".
Having a bullet button changes the AR15 from assault riffle to just a semi-auto riffle in terms California Law, but it increases reloading time, which defeats the purpose of having a magazine. Sorry if I got to boring haha
RandySykesIV 5 months ago
@RandySykesIV Ya I was just pointing out how stupid that sounds, so it takes an extra 5 seconds to load a mag, and that somehow makes the gun less "evil" as you put it. You just have to sit back in aww of the stupidity of politicians sometimes. A semi auto rifle is still a semi auto rifle, even if you have a 100 round drum mag on it, that doesn't make it automatic. Anyways look at every other states where you can own high cap mags, are we somehow more moral people than you ? Of course not.
pac6010 5 months ago
@mrtonic69 Normally it would be called a mag release. But a bullet button is installed, replacing the normal mag release.

Did your lower receiver come already with a bullet button installed? If you order online do they ship to your FFL without the BB installed or does your FFL need a gunsmith to work it? I'm assuming if you were to buy it say at Turners, they sell the lower receiver with bb installed. Is it 5.56/223? Or 7.62? Do they sell receivers for both? I'm new to the AR scene sorry for the noob questions

Very informative. To me (a truly rabid gun enthusiast) it's a tragedy that you guys have allowed your state gov to do all that. I'm not trying to judge you by the way you looked but maybe the cops would be less willing to fuck with you if you looked a little more like a cop and less like a "gangster". What I'm about to tell you is ridiculous but it works...I get away with breaking all sorts of laws (esp. traffic) just by looking clean cut and cop like.

California Law makes a distinction between standard AR "magazine releases" and "bullet buttons." A bullet button actuates the magazine latch with the use of a tool, usually the tip of a bullet. This circumvents California statutes regarding "assault weapons." Detachable magazines are restricted, and the "bullet button" nicely circumvents this law without seriously hindering gun function. There's no need to hate on people just wanting to shoot guns.
That being said, I'm glad I live in Texas.

@coheed00 Believe me, I don't like the gun laws of this state but, compared to other states (New York, Illinois, Hawaii, Guam, Virgin Islands and DC) California gun laws are like a walk in the park, in Hawaii you are not even allowed to use a gun to protect yourself without trying to retreat first. I personally favor the M1 Garand in California, no need to follow the bullshit laws and one that clip pops into place you have 8 rounds of 7.62x63mm ammo that will mess up any baddies day.

shishiromura 7 months ago
@shishiromura I believe California laws prohibit "assault weapons." Since "assault weapon" is a term for a class of gun, and not a specific model, they created criteria to determine whether or not a firearm falls into that category. A centerfire rifle that has a detachable magazine and things like a flash hider, thumbhole stock, pistol grip, grenade or flare launcher, or a forward pistol grip are all classified "assault weapon" Magazine capacities are restricted to 10 rounds max.

Needled247420 7 months ago
@Needled247420 im still reasearching into them myself. but CA has a 10rd limit on all firearms for 1 and well the bullet button i guess helps stop public crime buy making it harder to reload, which i guess helps for someone to try and stop them, also so the cops could stop them as they are reloading. also no threaded barrels and NO colts at all. there is a list on non compliant parts on the DOJ website for ca

@TheMunchKinney But there is really nothing stopping someone from taking off the Bullet button and replacing it with a normal Magazine release. Other than some cop noticing it at like a firing range.

That bullet button thing is a stupid idea
As is you having that magazine - if they are going to make a "safety" feature like that BB then they should make it that a three year old couldn't modify it to work normally - just wedge or fuse the tip of that tool in
As for the mag - why make it 10 round limit then allow a modified 30 rd ?? How are they gonna tell the difference!!!

Do the uppers and lowers need to be the same make? Or are they interchangeable? And if I bought a complete lower already assembled and a complete upper, are the assembly pins included? I know these are dumb questions but I'm new to this. I'm thinking about getting an AR. Also, can an M4 upper be put on an AR15 lower?
randomvalleydude 7 months ago in playlist AR-15
@randomvalleydude You can usually (almost always) match up uppers and lowers from different companies as long as they are AR-15 models, Lowers have pins built in. And yes M-4 and M-16 uppers will go on AR-15 lowers, (lower is what determines fully auto or semi auto). Difference is M-4 is a 16 inch barrel (most AR-15s are M-4 uppers), M-16 is a 20 inch barrel. 16 inch barrels are the shortest you can legally go without allot of bureaucracy.

It is called a bullet button rather than a mag release button because a bullet button has to have a tool to depress the release button. The tip of a bullet can fit to depress this button. the latter mag release button can be released with just press of finger.

PhyscoticWinner1 8 months ago
A mag release button is part of what makes these guns illegal in Ca. Detachable magazines and high capacity magazines (more than 10 rounds) are a big no no in Cali. With a bullet button the magazine is technically a fixed magazine, and the fact that you have to have an instrument to remove the magazine means it is not a mag release button in the traditional cense. It's just gay bullshit that uptight liberal politicians create to be able to rule with an iron fist.

Shout outs are always good to do if you like to do business with certin shops...Just an FYI.
