UPDATE - CA Compliant AR - Part 2

[@4TIMESAYEAR]

Slowing down anyone that's defending their home or business is aiding and abetting the criminal.

[@jacobanderson6551]

That's what they want

[@Sarge92]

what exactly do they think that catch would solve? if a shooter (the bad kind) has to keep taking off the upper to drop the mag why wouldnt they just snap off or remove that arm blocking the mag release before they do there crimes criminals file serials off guns cut the barrels shorter and all sorts of illigal mods before they do there crimes

[@johnnybbgunner2136]

There are shooters that did not completely close their upper receiver leaving it cracked open. They were then still able to chamber a round and fire the round causing their upper to crack from the blast. Not doing it and went featureless for now.

[@Sarge92]

california compliancy 2019-2020 to be legal in order to reload your weapon must require you take out all the pins seperate the upper from the lower remove no less than 22 drift pins from inside the lower holding the mag in place solve a rubiks cube cure cancer and dial the premium rate number to have a technician come out to unlock the magazine with his specialised key before you can take the magazine out

[@1mrsleepy1]

Lol, 😂 FML!!!

[@voxpopuli905]

Sarge That a MAGPUL grip?

[@thomassullivan1207]

This is simply not true. I just bought my AR and it only requires you pull the back pin. I got it at Sportsman's Warehouse and it's Cali Compliant.

[@ricklowry5447]

😂😂😂😂😂 thanks for the laugh. I need that.

[@GrOuNdZeRo7777]

Those monsters, You AR has a disability now!

[@jmsiii4751]

The folks at AR MAGLOCK are great people, and they stand behind their product. Great to work with!

[@tommymadux3646]

The end plate back by the castle nut is there for the detent for the rear take down spring. That’s why on some lowers it’s threaded with a small bolt that holds the spring in place

[@frankdrummer93]

I combined the ARMaglock mag release button with a juggernaut tactical take-down pin. Just file a bit off the top of the mag release so it clears between the lower and upper when you break the action with the take-down pin.

[@GPuga-ib2ng]

Oh my lord.. that’s the first time I’ve seen this in action

[@TalonGamingNetwork]

So, this is a good example as to why you never give dems power.

[@liqwidbpm]

The “Cross Armory Safe Mag” will auto drop the mag once you unpin the upper. They also make “Quick Pins” similar to what your showing here, as well as a floating front pin. I found their entire “Cross Armory” CA compliant solution to be the best on the market albeit expensive. On the plus side, Mag changes way faster compared to using a now evil Bullet Button.

[@Loudannoying9186]

And this is why California is fracturing in to three states

[@irenemoran6137]

Congratulations, you now have a gayR15.

[@garysovinsky9878]

This was once compliant in New York State. It no longer is compliant. I used the Cross Armory mag lock and the Mean Arms loader.

[@BulletSpoung]

Now you need a rear pin that has a spring, washer and roll pin that sets inside the rear receiver that will push the pin back into place. It will make the lever spring loaded so you can do everything faster.

[@CSdjcdog]

Is almost faster to load a round from the ejection port

[@Jayis_preppy]

They make a jig to instantly reload 10 rounds through your ejection port and into your fixed mag. California's dumb laws essentially did nothing after the gunsmiths were done.

[@Remaagen]

Looks like that rear take down pin is coming out at a slight angle. With all that rubbing. Eventually the rear hole on the right side of the receiver will become "elongated" or oval shape.

[@chadmcginney1600]

I hope all the crooks who own ARs comply with all these alterations!!! Maybe crooks will legally purchase their guns and ammo too!! Thanks California!! You made life more inconvenient for the law abiding citizens!!!

[@rayg2317]

Good video...think I will go this route ...makes the AR look more menacing with the extra hardware

[@ogbigbubbakush]

The company that makes it is called patriot pin. They have a new model with a couple new features on it, the patriot pin 2.0, if you haven't already, you should check it out. You should also get their front takedown pin as well, it's made out of delrin just like the rear one is ( I'm not sure if the first model like you have in the video has a rear takedown pin made out of delrin or metal ) but it's genius because you don't want metal on metal opening and closing it every 10 rounds, it will wear out the lower and upper eventually and become sloppy.

[@zaintahir9038]

Thanks for the video! I'll be using it as a reference when my kit comes in a few days!

[@RandyA7]

I suggest going featureless. There are grips and stocks that can replace the pistol grip and then you can have a regular mag release - way better than all of these extra steps and wear and tear on your gun. There are a few other things to make it featureless so look it up. The grip is by far the one to get right and probably the one most people hate, but there are some good choices out there!

[@toamaiusdvignir9468]

I always ask people that if you are unsure, or do not know don't say anything. In the simplest terms, in order for your rifle to fixed magazine per our laws and it's language, your action must be disassembled before you can drop the magazine. So if you can drop magazine while your rifle is assembled(pins are in and gun is in a ready to fire in a semiautomatic state) you are not in compliance. They so expanded "assault weapons" definition to include the ability to drop your magazine with the aid(use) of a tool to include bullet buttons. So if your rifle is in an assembled state and you can use a tool(remove your magazine locking device) without first having to first disassemble (open your action) you are not in compliance. I say stay away from locking devices that can be removed without opening the rifle. Because it is nothing more than a sophisticated bullet button. It will be up to a judge to decide that and if you are unlucky the judge will be a gun grabbing liberal. Rear pins aren't compliance parts, they are compliance accessories. Nothing needs to be permanently attached at least not in California. Good examples of compliance items that can be easily removed while in a free state and installed before coming in to a communist state are, CompMag Hogue Freedom Fighter These items are installed internally with a single hex screw. No way to remove them while gun receivers are assembled. No one could argue their legalities. Oh and no Loctite is needed. The AR Maglock that is in this video may be possibly fixed mag if you red Loctite and round off the bolt head so a tool cannot be readily removed. This however is an external installation and might come down to a judged interpretation. There are no official compliance documents or approval of devices. Just the vague language "(b) For purposes of this section, “fixed magazine” means an ammunition feeding device contained in, or permanently attached to, a firearm in such a manner that the device cannot be removed without disassembly of the firearm action."

[@dannyjulian7624]

Juggernaut hell fighter kit’s spring loaded take down pin plus this would be awesome

[@teeze65]

It’s called a mallet

[@GPuga-ib2ng]

California is crazy! You need to disassemble your rifle 50,0000x more than a regular at owner from Florida because of reload! That’s insane!

[@thomassullivan1207]

The Kingpin from AR Maglock is a much better solution. Just push your kingpin button with your right thumb and the mag release button (AR Maglock Gen 4) simultaneously and your upper pops open automatically (only about 1/8") and the magazine just drops out. It's the next best thing to having a stock AR setup. It's genius and I love it.

[@HuntsvilleHunter]

Is it new? This is an old vid and I’d love to update it...you have a link? Thanks!

[@kirkwesterveltoutdoors]

Your videos are very well done......it is not easy to video and explain has you have. Great job Thanks

[@HuntsvilleHunter]

Appreciate the kind words my friend!

[@11B30Inf]

No thank you.... I live in the free state of Nevada where their are no restrictions on AR-15 rifles.

[@dylang5011]

They make the magazine reales different now but there might be a option for some but on my ar there is this pin that blocks it then I have another one that like yours but it is on the other side and not connected to the reales button

[@brentb8084]

Looks nice and easy to use but what if the lever is bumped accidentally causing the upper receiver to open up.I would stay with the ring pin type even though it doesn't look nice. At least I know the upper receiver wouldn't pop open accidentally.

[@kameronmcknight8762]

Why didn't you just take the buffer and spring out before taking it apart? Wouldn't have to worry about springs flying if you did...

[@JC-ms2rz]

What about using a Mean Arms speed loader "clipazine" instead?

[@HuntsvilleHunter]

J C That’s a good idea actually...let me check it out.

[@narknartin]

put the MA loader on my 15 and its awesome

[@Rumeel12708]

Nice vid, theres something similar to this but instead of one long bolt it has 2 small bolts on each side spring tensioned and one just pushes the lever and they get pulled out enough for the upper to pop up, and then theres also a product that stops the upper from opening all the way and one can have it open an inch or however one adjust it too

[@HuntsvilleHunter]

Rumeel12708 Sounds cool! Thanks for watching!

[@joelfernandez2333]

Awesome and thanks for the demo.

[@americamatters2556]

Just a heads up brotha, if you separate the action to release your mag and close the action back up without a mag in it, they will bust you if they see it. Sounds bizarre (Which all of our unconstitutional laws in Cali are beyond bizarre) but look it up.

[@HuntsvilleHunter]

American 1st OMG you’re right...didn’t even think about that! Unbelievable to think we are the criminals for this lame law...

[@johnnybbgunner2136]

Hopefully on July 5th we will never have to do this to our hunting rifles.

[@HuntsvilleHunter]

Keep us posted on what happens!

[@ralphreinhardt6020]

Just build a featureless build. So much easier.

[@HuntsvilleHunter]

@@ralphreinhardt6020 old video bro…

[@anthonyshepard9606]

OUTSTANDING: This combination is starting to look more and more like normal, whatever normal is for California. I think I can deal with part one and two of your videos. I don't live in a war zone yet. LOL. 🔫🇺🇸🔫🇺🇸🔫🇺🇸🐢

[@JohnnyC4913]

Now just add a Magpul BAD lever to it to help speed up your mag change as well as prevent your fingers on your left hand from getting smashed from time to time.

[@HuntsvilleHunter]

Brilliant! Thanks!

[@davidbarnett7145]

Thanks for the Awesome Video.

[@HuntsvilleHunter]

Thanks for watching!

[@HuyTran-sk3py]

should check out Bear Flag Defense Feature lock, that one is a game changer when they release it.

[@HuntsvilleHunter]

Huy Tran Thanks for the heads up...make sure to post a link once it’s out!

[@noretreat2074]

I just cannot give up my PDQ bolt catch- so this choice is off the table. ALL BLACK RIFLES MATTER

[@noahfreeman7597]

Good instructions but it seems to me the rear lever pin could catch on just about anything. Having your upper separate while a round is going off could be a problem. Has the lever caught on anything while just handling the weapon? Thanks for the video.

[@HuntsvilleHunter]

Thanks for watching...yea, it’s a worry for me for sure...catching on anything actually...really sucks.

[@gabbyhayes1568]

Isn't the CompMag the easiest solution? Install it for use at the range in less than 2 minutes, remove it equally as fast, and your AR stays in it's original set up for home defense. No ugly ass featureless furniture, no frigging bullet buttons, keep your regular magazine release and 30 round mags.

[@richykong2930]

does anyone know if this is MA compliant also being a 10-round fix mag state?

[@kalenhouse]

have you checked out juggernaut quick release pin. It's awesome.

[@georgethelender5321]

Dude I have it but I keep messing up while trying to take it out....the pin that fits in the groove keeps slipping out of place which then I have to tele it in because I don’t have the tools to fix it

[@grimreaperpyrotechnics187]

FAT MONKAY I’m having the same problem😢 I’ll be switching over too patriot pin

[@judithmortiz9183]

How about the grip and the buttstock? Do you still need to replace it to make it "CA compliant" just like what you showed in your previous video? We are from Colorado and we are moving to California with my 2 rifles and 2 pistols. Sad though :-(

[@HuntsvilleHunter]

No, after doing both my Part 1 and 2 you can have the adjustable butt stock and pistol grip in tact.

[@LongNguyen-fp8ri]

With double feed, you cannot separate upper and lower. I rather go featureless. Ugly but defeat double feed issue.

[@MAXSOL69]

10:35 that's what she told me.

[@jamesobrien8668]

Why not just use a speed loader it's a lot faster

[@checkpoint209]

the king pins out for armaglock push button no pulling out take down pin anymore

[@dwee2244]

Great videos!! Thinking on pulling (pun intended) the trigger on Hardened Arms 6.8 spc II upper for $239.00!! Minus charging handle and bcg. Would you recommend this purchase?? Not sure at this price what I'm dealing with??

[@HuntsvilleHunter]

dale estabilio Thanks Dale! I like the price, but I hope you have another BCG you like...it’s important that those fit together like a glove. What’s the price with it included? I mean, for another $100 you get the hole thing...

[@dwee2244]

SoCalHunter Thinking on getting a toolcraft bcg for $100 and charging handle from bcm?? Might just stick with hardened arms for $150 instead for the whole thing like you stated. Comparing to bison armory upper this saves me about &400!!!

[@HuntsvilleHunter]

dale estabilio Great idea!

[@kichigaisensei]

Lots of people make money every time the California legislature makes a new "assault weapons" ban.

[@cyclepath55555]

This seems way over engineered, the Maglok/Kingpin seems like a much simpler design....

[@OCGunVibes]

It is. I got the Gen2 ARMaglock and it works great, almost as fast as a standard reload

[@Trashcankicker.]

I understand this was 5 years ago , but have you tried the kingpin system ?

[@HuntsvilleHunter]

Noob, first of all, thanks for recognizing that this was 5yrs ago…many comments don’t notice that. Second, I have heard great things about that kingpin setup…I moved to a 2A friendly state (AL) so no longer needed to make my AR compliant… There is another CA gun channel, a guy out of San Diego who has a video on kingpin, I believe…”gun” is in his channel name…

[@Trashcankicker.]

@@HuntsvilleHunter of course! .. And I myself went with the kingpin system , and till this day . I have it on my rifle . Best thing I’ve done, I love it .. I’m glad that you moved into a free state and no longer have to deal with this prison state haha . Enjoy your freedom !

[@dnham314]

Are you able to clear malfunctions with this setup?

[@ThuyTran-xn4fb]

Didn’t the king pin solved the problem

[@b.griffin317]

will there be a part 3 demo'ing actually using it? Like how quickly you can perform the loading proceedure.

[@HuntsvilleHunter]

b. griffin Great idea...thanks.

[@jerrymedina3548]

congratulations u just voided your warranty lol 😂

[@christopherknight1851]

maryland already has the 10 round mag shit i hope to hell they don't start this too

[@tome8373]

Do they make a thing for the rail in the front so it only shotguns part way without flopping all the way forward

[@HuntsvilleHunter]

I can't find anything on their website patriot-pin.com/...not to say others wouldn't have what you are looking for...

[@BrothaRome]

YOU NEED JUGGERNAUT! It makes more sense than patriot pin.

[@charleshayes2729]

Are these available for the VR 80 shotguns

[@jacobanderson6551]

Thought you guys were splitting up into three states

[@11B30Inf]

They been talking shit off and on for over 75 years about splitting the state... all talk, no action!

[@americamatters2556]

Go featureless or the juggernaut hellfighter kit. Those options will be the easiest. The juggernaut cracks the upper but it also stops it, so the upper only opens about an inch or so.

[@JF-qc6po]

Still don't understand why anyone would go fixed mag when you can go featureless. Drop mags like the gum was intended

[@07350zVegas]

People do this to get the pistol grip.

[@justicebdone7]

Way better systems out there to break the action, maglock has one of the better systems

[@Rumeel12708]

I want a scar but so far no mag lock for the fn scar 17 😭

[@fideles-ad-rationem]

That's ridiculous, honestly. You can put the pin that came with your ar maglock without using the ring and it works so much better and it's extremely easy to pull and push back in place. That thing you installed looks awful and like it's going to come off.

[@HuntsvilleHunter]

fideles-ad-rationem 2013 Actually, what’s ridiculous is that I have to do this in the first place ;)

[@fideles-ad-rationem]

SoCalHunter well yeah, I had to do it too, but that's a totally different topic; we can still talk about options.

[@jason200912]

At this point it's faster just to use clips to load into a stationary mag.

[@HuntsvilleHunter]

Totally...what a joke...so glad I left CA so I could put this AR back to normal!

[@lemoose1000]

King pin all the way.

Will this work on colt 6920 rifles?

[@the_truth21]

brock Lee yes. I actually did the juggernaut hellfighter on the 6920 and got the armaglock with the king pin pack for an lmt. Whichever one I like best I will keep and switch to it.

[@brocklee1996]

The truth ok right on , thanks. Keep me posted on what you end up sticking with. I'm trying to get a consensus of what works best!!

[@Chumly409]

There's a MUCH better solution than this set up. Juggernaut Tactical makes a Hellfighter mode that is clean and simple. LWRC owners already have half the kit on their release button. Only have to pop it up 1/16th of an inch (if that much) with a push of a button and it catches it right there, much less than that mag release he has which is slower and exposes the trigger to the environment.

[@HuntsvilleHunter]

Yep, stated many times in the comments below...this video is old and needs to be updated. Thanks!

[@GabrielGarcia-my9bn]

Juggernaut tactical hellfighter is way better than this one.

[@williamcollins3565]

As long as everyone understands . . . this is stupid. It's just our masters in Sacramento making it as difficult as possible to enjoy our 2nd Amendment rights. Of all the people who own these things, I seriously doubt if anyone of normal sanity wants to take it to a schoolyard and shoot a bunch of kids. And if one or two decide to do that, they'll find a way, because there's no one at that school to prevent that. They have the only gun in the place and if they want to drop their upper to reload, they'll have all the time in the world to do it.

[@Tuftsedge1]

Florida doesn’t require that🤔

[@ashman0071]

Just so you can quick change your 10 round magazines ? makes no sense at all - get an interior lower, easily removable mag lock, retain your regular magazine release button for YOUR ONE RANGE WEAPON and load it from above or with a port loading device. So your plan is to take a mag locked weapon and multiple 10 round magazines to a gunfight with a criminal with no regard for these laws or carry the same mag lock compliant weapon and multiple 10 round magazines during a SHTF scenario like the Rodney King Riots when the Police were no where to be found? Boy are you d......
