Is an unaltered MAS49/56 with the grenade launcher and sights legal to sell to a C&R holder that lives in California?

Thanks in advance.

    No it is not. I am an FFL dealer here in California and C&R firearms and are not exempt from the states assault weapons regulations (in this case a grenade launcher on a semi automatic rifle). Because of this a holder of a C&R license may not receive any assault weapons from out of state. Fully licensed firearms dealers (TYPE 1 FFL and a California dealer on the DOJ approved list) are allowed to have assault weapons shipped in for sale to police, but a MAS49/56 would be a REAL stretch to expalin to the DOJ why a PD needed an obsolete French rifle for offical use. Bottom line: The buyer needs to be an actual firearms dealer and would need to send you a statement that the firearm is for sale to a law enforcement agency.
