What calibers does the R7 Mako come in?

Every current version is chambered in 9mm Luger.

Is the R7 Mako optics-ready?

Of the 14 versions, 7 are optics-ready; 5 ship with a red dot installed; and 2 are milled for RMSc/Holosun K-pattern dots.

Can you buy one in California or Massachusetts?

California and Massachusetts each keep their own list of handguns approved for sale, and a gun has to be on it before a dealer there can sell it to you. State rules change, so check our California and Massachusetts pages before you buy.
