Is the take down and cleaning easy or do you have to take it all apart to get to the bolt?

Ralph, very simple to take apart and clean. It has a little lever that you flip and that removes the upper from the lower and you can clean it quick and easy that way. Hope this helps.

Ralph, take down and cleaning is relatively easy compared to other designs Sir. Cheers and stay safe!

is this a quality gun? 5 or 10 round mag?

Daniel, yes this is a quality shotgun. Reviews are good on this and for the most part people are happy with their purchase. This includes two 5 round magazines. This takes AR12 magazines or mka 1919 magazines. Here's a link to a 10 round magazine if interested. Hope this helps, link here........ https://www.budsgunshop.com/product_info.php/products_id/411559964/sds+imports+turkish+ar12+12ga+10rd+magazine

Is this NJ Compliant Bud's Item # 715004318

Thanks, James. Unfortunately it is a Semi-Auto with a restricted Pistol Grip so it is not NJ legal. Details under Shotguns here : https://www.budsgunshop.com/feeds/state_reg/new_jersey_restrictions.pdf

Would you recommend getting this semi auto mag fed or a pump action for home defense

Kira, a Semi-Auto will be more effective overall. It will be easier to stay focused on a potential target and easier for quicker follow up shots if needed. To get the most reliability out of a Semi-Auto, break it in with full power loads first, then test for reliability with your self defense load of choice. A pump is more reliable and also effective but slower and has more training needed to become close to the effectiveness of a Semi-Auto. I own both and am well versed in the use of either. Cheers and stay safe!

Was wondering if this firearm is Ca compliant

Andrew, no sir, a semi-automatic shotgun that has the ability to accept any detachable magazine is prohibited. https://www.budsgunshop.com/feeds/state_reg/california_restrictions.pdf

No, it has a detachable mag, so the liberals in cali wont let you have it.

Andrew, unfortunately this is not California compliant due to the detachable magazine. Any semi automatic shotgun can't have a detachable magazine. Sorry but hope this helps.
