Please don't make this political, just throwing out a PSA for anyone who this may apply to.
Just a reminder to anyone in California who has a rifle with a bullet button, that you have until Saturday June 30th to register the firearm as a "bullet button assault rifle" with the state of California. If you do not wish to register as such, the firearm must be made "featureless" which means no piston grip, fixed stock, no foregrips, and no flash suppressor. I just did mine and it was pretty straight-forward. You submit 4 pictures, close-up of the bullet-button, left side of receiver, right side of receiver, and overall length of the firearm. They charge $15 per transaction and you can have multiple firearms on one transaction. Note: they must be complete firearms, no lower receivers that are not built and do not have an upper receiver. Also the bullet-button picture for an AK style rifle should be from the side, not of the mechanism. Also the full length picture should be with the firearm laying on its side, not standing on the buttstock.
I waited about as long as I could comfortably wait for any possible last minute legal rulings, however I don't see any coming between now and Saturday. Failure to comply with either registering or making the firearm featureless immediately makes the registered owner a felon in possession of an assault rifle.
