Unfortunately in California you have to be 21 in order to own any firearm. And this is also not California compliant/legal. Unfortunately California isn't a great place for gun owner's. Sorry but hope this helps.

Tenoch, a minimum of 21 years of age is the requirement in CA. Good details here : https://giffords.org/lawcenter/state-laws/minimum-age-to-purchase-possess-in-california/

This AK you linked to isnt compliant in CA regardless of your age. But even if you found a compliant AK you'd need to be 21 years old

Any person under the age of 21 is prohibited from purchasing a semiautomatic centerfire rifle, excepting active law enforcement. but this firearm is illegal for anyone in CA ✘ Semi-automatic centerfire rifles that do not have a fixed magazine, but have any one of the following features:: ○ Pistol grip - a grip that protrudes conspicuously beneath the action of the firearm. ○ Thumbhole stock ○ Folding or telescoping stock ○ Grenade or flare launcher ○ Flash suppressor or flash hider ○ Foregrip -

Tenoch, you can serve our great country and go to war and handle all types of weapons at age 18, but in CA you cannot buy a gun until you are 21. Go figure.
