Aren't semiautomatic pistols legal in California? The barrel and magazine adaptations are absurd since they can be changed in about thirty seconds (as long as you buy another barrel and mag).
The state of California Roster of Handguns Certified for Sale allows a Beretta that falls well within the minimum dimension standards listed in the bill.
It appears that the law (California Section 31900 of the Penal Code) refers to handguns that are required to have safety features including a chamber load indicator, magazine disconnect and to be drop safe. Those safety features also seem to include microstamping capability(?). What do the overall dimensions of the gun have to do with the safety features of the gun?
This is the screwiest load of bullshit I've seen in a while.
