Frequently asked questions

Does this rifle come with sights installed?

No, the M1500 ships without iron sights. The receiver is drilled and tapped for scope mounting, so you'll need to add your own optic or sighting system.

What's the magazine capacity and can I change it?

The standard magazine holds four rounds. Aftermarket magazines exist for the M1500 platform, but verify compatibility with your specific model before purchasing upgrades.

What is an FFL transfer in California?

An FFL transfer is when a federally-licensed dealer like TacticCAL receives a firearm shipped from another seller and processes California's required DROS paperwork to legally transfer it to you. Find gun shop Menlo Park at TacticCAL.
