kimberacp Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 WHY is the XDm NOT California legal? Why didnt SA submit it to DOJ? Thats a really nice pistol!!!!!! thanks just venting my frustrations with this state... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErichF Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 (edited) :P :P :P It's not legal due to mag capacity, as far as I know. There are no 10-round magazines available from the OEM. I wouldn't even be able to possess my own gun on a trip to California. Edited November 22, 2011 by ErichF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.Hayden Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 WHY is the XDm NOT California legal? Why didn't SA submit it to DOJ? Thats a really nice pistol!!!!!! thanks just venting my frustrations with this state... Why don't you call Springfield? If enough people expressed interest, they'd probably submit it. But, for all I know they may have already and the tests aren't done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trail3 Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 There is no mag disconnect. Can not be DOJ approved. The XD was introduced before the mag disconnect requirement and is grandfathered along with a lot of other guns. There are ways to get the XDm in Ca, by way of the single shot exemption. and blocking the standard cap mags to only 10 rounds. Please visit calguns.net to find out specific information and FFL's for the single shot exemption. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kimberacp Posted November 22, 2011 Author Share Posted November 22, 2011 thanks, Trail3. I visit Calguns from time to time. Where exactly would I look? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trail3 Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 No problem Dave, living in a free state now one will tend to forget about our insane gun laws. Kimberacp, check in the handgun section or the FFL section or the legal section in Calguns. There is a whole section some where on how to go about the single shot exemption. Or as they say use the search function. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrumpyOne Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 I'm not in Commiefornia, what do you mean by "single shot exemption"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trail3 Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 Single shot exemption, the way I heard it is that if you have a gun with a barrel lenght of over 7.5" and can only be fired single shot at a time, you can sell it in Ca without being on the approved DOJ roster list. Once you buy the gun with a 7.5" barrel and a single shot mag set up, you take it home and put the factory barrel which the FFL gives you, in it and the regular mags. Not against the law for the new owner to modify his gun. Most FFL's will take the 7.5" barrel back and use it for the next sale. Really only works (price wise) for popular pistols which the FFL's have had 7.5" barrels made up. If they pass a BS law, the gun owners will find a way around it. Look at the Off List Lowers Ca gun owners figured out how to get in CA. No one said our anti-gun liberal political class was that smart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
