What AK 47 specifications you can own in California?

Question by : Can you own an AK 47 in California and what specifications?
I want to buy an AK 47 and have it shipped with no clip. Then get a small one when it gets here. There is also a 2nd grip in the front of the gun I think needs to be removed to be legal. Please let me know if you know about the california laws for getting / having an AK47

    The short answer is no.

    The longer answer is…

    It is unlawful to offer for manufacture, sale, give or
    lend any “assault weapon” or .50 caliber BMG rifle. It is
    unlawful to possess an “assault weapon” or a .50 caliber
    BMG rifle unless it is properly registered with the state.
    The registration period for “assault weapons” and .50 caliber
    BMG rifles has ended. If an individual has an unregistered”
    assault weapon” or .50 caliber BMG rifle after the registration
    period has ended, law enforcement would prefer
    that they turn the “assault weapon” in to law enforcement.
    Anyone with a registered “assault weapon” or .50 caliber
    BMG rifle wishing to legally dispose of the firearm: can
    sell it to a dealer with an “assault weapons” permit (for
    such firearms) and .50 caliber BMG rifle permit (for such
    rifles); or with both type of permits; relinquish it to local
    law enforcement (after making an appointment); remove
    the “assault weapon” or .50 BMG caliber rifle from the state
    or destroy it. Any person inheriting a registered “assault
    weapon” or .50 caliber BMG rifle has 90 days to render
    the weapon permanently inoperable, sell to an approved
    firearms dealer, obtain a permit from the Department of
    Justice to possess firearms, or move the gun out of state.
    Pawning “assault weapons” and .50 caliber BMG rifles is
    not permitted.

    California law defines “assault weapons” in two
    ways:
    • firearms listed on the original Roberti Roos assault
    weapons law or in the California Code of Regulations.
    • by the specific generic characteristics.
    A further explanation of firearms considered “assault
    weapons” can be found on the Department
    of Justice website.
