I'm not familiar with that piece, but if it's "new" as you say, then it's a good bet it's not on the list yet. The Springfield XDM isn't even on the list yet, to give you a time reference. Good luck.

Yeah I did. I cant understand why they are not on the list since they function like anyother Colt.

Because each make/model must be submitted for testing and pass the CA DOJ's criteria. Not every model gets submitted.

They're legal to buy private party as long as you buy from another Ca. resident. If you're LEO they don't have to be on the list,you can order anything.
