This rifle is built with a fixed-magazine locking system intended to meet the “fixed magazine” definition under California law: the magazine cannot be released until the upper and lower receivers are separated at the takedown pin, consistent with California’s regulatory description of “disassembly of the firearm action.” It ships with a magazine limited to 10 rounds.

This configuration is designed to allow features such as a pistol grip without the rifle meeting California’s statutory definition of an “assault weapon,” provided the rifle remains in this configuration and the magazine capacity is not altered.

Compliance depends on your specific firearm, how it is configured, and California law as it exists at the time of your purchase. Palmetto State Armory does not warrant or guarantee that any particular rifle complies with California law in your hands. See full California Disclaimer below. We recommend you review the configuration with your dealer and, if you have questions about your own legal obligations, with a California-licensed attorney before purchase or modification.

California Disclaimer

Palmetto State Armory has configured this rifle with a fixed-magazine locking mechanism and a magazine limited to 10 rounds, intended to meet the “fixed magazine” definition under California law.

No guarantee of compliance. Palmetto State Armory makes no representation, warranty, or guarantee–express or implied–that any specific rifle, as sold, modified, or later altered, complies with California law or the law of any other jurisdiction. Whether a firearm meets the legal definition of a “fixed magazine” configuration can depend on the specific firearm, its installation, its condition at any given time, and interpretations of law that may change. California law in this area is complex, subject to ongoing litigation, and subject to change without notice.

Buyer responsibility. It is the buyer’s sole responsibility to determine whether a firearm is lawful to purchase, possess, transport, or modify in their jurisdiction, and to maintain it in a lawful configuration. Modifying, removing, or defeating the fixed-magazine mechanism, using a magazine exceeding 10 rounds, installing a non-compatible lower receiver, or otherwise altering the rifle’s configuration may render it unlawful to possess in California.

Not legal advice. Nothing on this website, in our marketing materials, or in any video is legal advice. We strongly recommend consulting a California-licensed attorney and your firearms dealer regarding your specific circumstances before purchasing, transferring, or modifying any firearm.

Transfers through licensed dealers only. All sales are subject to applicable federal and California transfer requirements, including background checks, waiting periods, and any applicable dealer-conducted verification.

Warranty

Palmetto State Armory firearms are covered by an industry-leading Full Lifetime Warranty. This extends beyond the original purchaser. We want the person who bought a great quality firearm at an excellent price to have comfort in knowing that, if an issue arises due to a defect in materials or workmanship, we will make it right, consistent with this warranty.

We strive for excellence all the way through production and hope customers never have to use this warranty. We also pride ourselves in a 99% non-repair/non-return ratio, but this warranty is here for peace of mind so that the customer can be confident in their purchase.

For the Life of Our Product

Firearms and parts manufactured by Palmetto State Armory are backed by our Full Lifetime Warranty. Our PSA manufactured firearms and parts are warranted to be free from defects in materials and craftsmanship for the serviceable lifetime of the firearm or part. The liability of Palmetto State Armory under this warranty shall be limited solely to the obligation to repair the defect, replace the firearm or part, or provide a refund, and to pay transportation and insurance charges for any return of the firearm to the owner for a rightful warranty claim. This warranty is transferable for the serviceable lifetime of the firearm or part.

What We Don't Cover

This warranty does not cover ordinary wear and tear or any damage resulting from careless or criminal handling, abuse, neglect, corrosion, unauthorized or improper modifications, including modifications using non-PSA or otherwise incompatible parts, unauthorized or improper repairs or adjustments, use of improper, substandard, reloaded, or defective ammunition, or other unauthorized or unreasonable use of the firearm or firearm part. Palmetto State Armory disclaims all responsibility and liability for any damage caused as a result of third-party accessory use.

This warranty is offered solely to individual consumer (civilian) customers. It does not apply to government or non-civilian customers. This warranty is valid only for residents of the United States (excluding territories) and applies only to firearms and parts purchased, located, and used within the United States. We do not accept returns for, and will not repair or replace, any firearms or parts purchased, located, or used outside the United States.

Palmetto State Armory, in its sole discretion, will determine if a particular issue or condition is covered by this warranty.

Initiating a Warranty Claim

To initiate a warranty claim, please use the Contact Form and select "Problem with a PSA Product" as your Contact Reason. Warranty claims must include a completed RMA form in the box with the returned firearm or part. All complete firearms need to be returned in full for repair. Replacement parts will not be issued or sent to the customer. The firearm or part concerned must be shipped using the prepaid label that our representative emails to you. Palmetto State Armory will pay shipping and insurance charges for the return of a firearm or part to its owner or FFL, if the related claim is a proper claim for warranty work. If Palmetto State Armory is unable to fix the original serial number, a new one will be sent out but must go to an FFL for transfer back to the customer. Another background check will be completed at the time of transfer. Palmetto State Armory is not responsible for transfer fees at the FFL.

The remedies described above are your sole and exclusive remedies and Palmetto State Armory's entire liability for any breach of this Full Lifetime Warranty. Palmetto State Armory shall not under any circumstances be liable for any consequential, incidental, special or punitive damages or losses, whether direct or indirect.

Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.

This Full Lifetime Warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may also have other rights, which vary from state to state.
