Mosin-Nagant Legality in California

Standard models (M91/30, M44) are generally legal—they lack "assault weapon" features (fixed magazine, no pistol grip, fixed stock). However, modifications can create illegality:

• Detachable magazine conversion
• Pistol grip or forward grip added
• Folding/telescoping stock installed

Magazine limit: 10 rounds max. Local laws may add restrictions. Federal ban may affect bayonet-equipped variants. Always consult a licensed CA firearms dealer or attorney for current compliance.
