LWRC previews CA-compliant magazine-less AR

We stopped by the LWRC booth and were fortunate enough to get to handle and photograph two guns that you’ll probably be hearing a lot more about this coming year. The first gun is a special magazine-less AR that’s designed to be legal in ban states like CA. Take a look at the shots in the gallery below, and you can get a good idea of how this thing works.

You pull down the box at the bottom, insert bullets into the bullet-shaped hole, and then shove the whole thing back up. It’s basically a non-detachable, reloadable “magazine” that you can get in either 7 or 10 round configurations, depending on your local laws.

The LWRC rep told me that CA is the company’s largest civilian market, so it’s clear that they’re not going to just let it go without a fight. This seems like a great idea, and while it pains me that all of my shooter friends in CA will have to jump through hoops like this, at least they’ll still have options.

LWRC has a patent pending on this device, but they’re hoping to license it widely. So those of you in CA might see this design crop up in a number of ARs in the coming year or so.

Looks like one more good reason NOT to live in CA. Ever.

W....T....F....

oh yea CA.

[Lazylaser]

This should be the SAME AR issued to CA police and California SWAT!

the market speaks.

I will give due credit to the engineers that designed this.

But its a sad and pathetic state of affairs politically that they had to in the first place.

Don't worry it will be banned soon after it's arrival in Kali.

I don't know what to think about this.

I understand that it allows those who face restrictions a way to still own one, but it also presents a "common sense solution" to those hell bent on restricting them all the way to extinction.

I could see a push to legislate these IN and detachable mag rifles OUT now that the option has presented itself.

I wish these companies would stop catering to these states with ridiculous laws. There are a few guns I would have bought if companies would not have loaded them with commie state compliant crap.

What difference – at this point, what difference does it make?
