I had tried to purchase a Springfield 1911 Mil-Spec Defender off Buds only to get a notice saying my money was refunded as it wasn't legal in California? My local gun shop has the same exact gun... what am I missing? Thanks.

Jim, The model specific model number must be on the CA DOJ Roster. You can check it here. If it appears, then Buds needs to update their State compliance listings.  --   https://www.oag.ca.gov/firearms/certified-handguns/search?make=150975
