Actually, this is no longer an issue. Smith & Wesson stopped selling M&P 9 and 40c's in CA. Maybe they felt that the number sold didn't justify the expense of "donating" three pistols and having to pay to have the testing done every time when they were about to go off the list.

I think this was part of California's intent all along.
