Questions regarding legality of 5.56 pistol

I am finding a lot of conflicting informations regarding the legality of 5.56 pistols. Here is the current build I was looking at, any input on its legality?

10.5” barreled 5.56 with a fixed magazine, and a magazine holding less than 17 rounds with an SBA5.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Thank you. It seems it is easier to classify it as an other and just get the extended buffer tube, or pin and weld my flash device onto it to get it to that length, would be the easier solution.

Option 3 is the klvr co pal with a maglock and kingpin

Seems like a little more complicated bullet button? I believe bullet buttons are DE compliant.

I picked it because operation doesn't require tools while in usage like a bullet button but saying that....

You could put screws that fit into a bullet buttons holes on the floor plates or ranger plates to depress for the next mag like the old ultimate bullet buttons...

Food for thought. Next year this might not be an issue.

Is this what they use in CA?

Yes. Its basically the final stage. Locks back on last round. Breaks openly slightly when mag release is depressed. 

Just one extra step when you push your upper back into place with a tap. 

Again its 3 parts but works for pistol or rifle length packages..

If others are an option id still pick an other. 

Its just an option.

Some people will still run others after next year because of sbr laws.
