Springfield Armory 1911 Loaded Marine Corps Operator CA Compliant .45 ACP OD/Black Pistol

A: yes it is CA compliant but it does not show up on the Buds CA compliant list so you will need to Contact Buds customer service (859) 368-0371 available 9AM to 9PM CST Monday through Friday or use the blue chat now button and they will help you We are not buds employees we are volunteers that answer questions "A "CA" designation at the end of Springfield product codes indicates the model has the integral locking system (ILS) and is the same handgun model as the one that was tested per California standards. The "CA" will not appear on the handgun."

A: Jeffrey, yes Sir it is. You just may need to direct Buds to the actual CA DOJ Roster as CA recognizes this pistol as approved for sale there. Buds Customer Service contact is 1-859-368-0371 9am-9pm EST Mon-Fri. or use the Blue Chat now button at the bottom right corner 9am to 9pm 7 days a week.

A: Yes Jeffrey it is CA compliant, as indicated by the "CA" after teh model number. Buds had made an administrative error somewhere in their date entry process, but if you contact them, I woudl imagine they'll ship it out expeditiously. Call them at 1-859-368-0371 (9am-9pm EST Mon-Fri) or use the "chat now" button located at the bottom right hand portion of your screen, (9am-9pm EST 7 days a week) and tell them, and they will probably help you place your order - so have your payment method and FFL information ready when you call. Nice 1911, for sure,.

A: Jeffrey, Yes this fine firearm is on the CA AGO's Roster of Handguns Approved to Ship to CA. See following listing. https://www.budsgunshop.com/catalog/product_info.php/products_id/19666

A: Yes. Buds has a problem with nit having all CA approves handguns on their California section. I have one of these.

A: Rick, the integral locking system (ILS) uses a key to lock the the pistol when stored or left unattended. The keyhole is located on the rear of the grip. Stay safe & have a great day!

A: Hi Rick and welcome. Yes Sir. The Integral Locking System (I.L.S.) replaces the mainspring housing of the handgun and when engaged prevents the hammer from moving by locking the mainspring cap, making the gun inoperable. It does not require any modification to the handgun. Picture of the system here (top of the hand grip and uses an allen type key to activate) : https://www.midwayusa.com/product/1762182330 ----------- Cheers and stay safe!

A: Hi Brice and welcome. The grips can be changed to the more traditional 1911 Grips no issue. Cheers and stay safe!

A: Brice, yes sir, these grips can be changed out. Stay safe & have a great day!

A: Absolutely, you can change out to whatever suits your liking.

A: Hi Joshia and welcome. This has a loaded chamber indicator slot in the slide/barrel hood. It has also been vetted to be on the CA DOJ Handgun Roster. Cheers and stay safe!

A: It's "Compliant" because it is on the CA DOJ approved gun Roster.

A: Hi Joshua, Springfield Armory paid Dictator Newsome the $200 extortion fee to have it put the CA Approved Handgun Roster. Springfield 1911s must have "CA" in the model number to ship. Stay safe & have a great day!
