It does not have a caliber specific exit hole. I would not put that device on my featureless rifle.

Edit: I said what I would not do and why. I do not recommend any muzzle devices. I use them. But I don't recommend them. If you want to avoid being the low hanging fruit for CALDOJ then the following applies.

These things are irrelevant:

  • Threads, pinning, welding, or any other method of attachment of the device.
  • The absence of a claim that a device suppresses flash.
  • Claims that a device is legal by anyone, possibly even your lawyer.

These things are relevant:

  • The actual effect on muzzle flash. Specifically that the device does not "perceptibly reduce or redirect muzzle flash from the shooter's field of vision." CCR 11 § 5469 (b)
  • A manufacturers assertion that a device is not a flash hider if it's true.
  • A ruling by a judge.
  • If you do not understand this completely then use a thread protector.

Tips from ChuckDizzle on CalGuns

  • Use the saying, "if it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, it's a duck."
  • If it shares physical characteristics of a flash hider such as slots, prongs, or a bullet hole that is conspicuously larger than the bore diameter, it's a flash hider.
  • If it visibly reduces or directs muzzle flash away from the shooter's field of vision, it's a flash hider.
  • If it is advertised or marketed to reduce or redirect muzzle flash, it's a flash hider.

Any ONE of the above will make a muzzle device a flash hider.

Not sure. I gave up trying to figure out their gun laws written by folks that have no clue what a gun even is, or what components do what. Like their no bayonets rule - LOL. I guess it's a serious problem since so many Californians are killed by bayonets every year. /s

But seriously, most of their regs are ridiculous and have no bearing on safety or as they now like to say, common sense gun laws - LOL. I lived in CA before they went nuts (but am not a native, I'm an East Coaster by birth), so I'm just happy as a pig in shit that I moved along.
