Please help: If muzzle device removed,

alvin · 04-13-2012, 06:45 PM

(1) If muzzle device removed, is Yugo SKS California OK ??

(2) I know that California does not recognize C&R. Besides shipping to California FFL dealer, is there any special procedure to follow?

I don't know anything about the muzzle device, but since this SKS has only the fixed magazine, I believe it is OK. The CA DOJ assault weapons list is here.

I don't know what you mean about CA not recognizing C&R's. You can buy C&R rifles here in CA without a FFL.
Sincerely,

I believe the Yugo SKS's muzzle device is classified as a muzzle break in CA and not a thermo-nuclear, bio terrorist, chemical dispercing, deadly flash hider.

Follow Marc's lead and make sure this device is not capable of wiping out an entire civilization in Ca.

California does not like that grenade launcher. People even composed PDF to teach how to remove the muzzle device and sight to make it Cali-compatible.

I think I will deny the modification and the sale. Not worth my trouble. Thanks.

They just want to be sure that you folks are safe and sound.....I didn't say happy!!

Please just take it off and sell it to us poor CA people. CA liberals are afraid of the very dangerous grenade launcher. Because it is not 50+ years old you do have to send it to a FFL01. I have one with a sleeve welded over the top so the grenade will not fit. You would not have grenades to go with the gun by chance, they are hard to find

I reviewed the procedure, removing the 22m/m grenade launcher is not a big problem, but I also need to install a muzzle brake permanently to prevent next owner to put the grenade launcher back. That will increase my cost.

Looks like the dealer who's listing many cheap $329 Yugo SKS is running out of his inventory. Mine is now falling into "market priced" category. I can wait.
