You are correct - Series 70 is no longer legal to purchase in California.
Colt probably does not/did not submit a test model because they didn't see a reason to help bolster the used pistol market if they weren't making them anymore.
Why do you want a Series 70 over the Series 80 - just curious to ask.
I got one because it was made about the same period as my royal blued Colt Python - they make a good matching pair.
