Cali Legal Mac-10 Carbine from Masterpiece Arms
Updated: January 9th, 2013
Masterpiece Arms have developed a California-Legal version of their Mac-10-patterned carbines. The Defender Carbine models MPA1SST, MPA20SST and MPA9300SST now include a magazine lock device that will prevent the magazine from being removed without a tool, thereby making it Cali-Legal.
45 ACP Side Cocking Carbine Rifle with Scope Mount and 16″ Threaded Barrel (Standard Model, Not Cali-Legal)
No word if pricing for Cali-legal models is the same as the regular models.
I founded TFB in 2007 and over 10 years worked tirelessly, with the help of my team, to build it up into the largest gun blog online. I retired as Editor in Chief in 2017. During my decade at TFB I was fortunate to work with the most amazing talented writers and genuinely good people!

A lot of people posting from outside of California are terribly confused about CA firearm law. I suggest a visit to the Forums over at http:/www.calguns.net to get your "facts" on CA firearm law set straight.
In CA through grassroots 2A activists and effective legal actions coordinated with multiple groups (NRA, CPRA, SAF, CGF) we are slowly winning back our firearm rights in this state.
CA firearm owners are some of the staunchest gun-rights advocates and much that is happening here will have repercussions on the national level.
If you're against firearm owners in CA then you may as well be against 2A rights in general. Don't cast us off. Much of the current regime of laws was in place even before I could legally cast a vote on the ballot.
Lagduf, I am stuck in this dung pile of a state, having once been a free man who was seriously into shooting. Gun enthusiasts here for the most part are regulated into being a joke, a bad one at that who often don't come off to the masses as anything more than either racist and stupid, or as immature as 8 year olds theorizing the first time they'll get laid as they talk about their stupid, naughty little plans to smuggle magazines from Nevada, or their bizarre legal stocks for otherwise illegal rifles. And it's not their fault, doing anything more is highly illegal!
Calguns may have it's upsides, but it's burdened by cop loving moderators who love to censor opposing viewpoints. There really isn't much to work with to bring about meaningful change, and hasn't been since Reagan banned loaded carry.
I am stuck here temporarily for family reasons and cannot wait for the day in about a year when we will be leaving. This place is a lost cause for gun rights, and no doubt leaving is the only good option. Lying to yourself that there is a chance that things will be fixed one day isn't healthy.
