gfl216 220 Posted February 16, 2018 I know that this is something that most of you probably don't want to talk about but I was asked by a friend and I didn't have an answer so, I figured I'd ask. If Murphy gets his way and reduces the legal magazine limit to 10 rounds, do you think that it would be cheaper to block the magazines you have (Glock) or sell them out of state and buy 10 round mags?

JohnnyB 4,289 Posted February 16, 2018 If Murphy reduces magazine capacity to 10 rounds I say the state of New Jersey owes me a ton of money for making my legally purchased property illegal with a stroke of a pen! Let them pay for the replacements or blocks! 8 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

67gtonut 847 Posted February 16, 2018 It is a personal decision.... But I see no scenario where I can be arrested for having the magazines in my house. They would need a warrant to search, and for what reason would they get such warrant? And as far as a HD scenario..... I would have NO issue facing the charges for the 15rd mags if it meant saving my and/or my wife's life.... I seriously doubt the prosecutor would follow through on the charges on a clean HD shoot.... 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bhunted 887 Posted February 16, 2018 Keep them... I bought them legally, they get nada! As I said before. My Rules: Want my shit? Fine...you can have it. - I want MSRP at time of purchase for everything you want plus 10% for my trouble. - I will take money, move, (which I am already), and re-purchase un-demented, un-retarded, un-butchered new guns as they are meant to be. So essentially? If not? I extend the American wave.... 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GunsnFreedom 245 Posted February 16, 2018 Are RO's going to round check mags to see if they are 10/30 or 15/30? No. I purchased them legally. The law is supremely stupid and will likely be struck down in court (since a lot of people will have been "harmed" by it) especially seeing how NY's mag ban got struck down for being arbitrary. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gfl216 220 Posted February 16, 2018 If it comes to it, it's going to be a personal decision for each of us. Back on topic, typically how much dose it cost to have a magazine blocked? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
1LtCAP 4,259 Posted February 16, 2018 do it yourself. there's companies that make blocks. online. i think they sell em cheap. put the block in yourself, and pin or epoxy the mag, and you're done. that said......bhunted. you're being too lenient with only +10%. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SW9racer 262 Posted February 16, 2018 Why can't you disassemble them and keep the parts for spares if the 10 round mag breaks? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

louu 399 Posted February 16, 2018 http://www.magazineblocks.com/magento/ The Glock ones glue on the bottom of the follower then glue the basepad on so all the mud ruins your gun. The AR ones replace the base pad retainer then glue on your basepad so the mud and sand can ruin that gun too. Before you glue the basepad on you should load it up to your desired round count and make sure it seats on a closed slide/bolt. Ideally you want it to go 3/4 of getting the next round in the mag meaning if it's a 10 round mag you want it to hold 10 and 3/4 rounds. You have to trim all the blocks to get it there. Just do a little trim at a time or you will over do it then your mag will hold 11 and then you will go to the federal pound you in the ass penitentiary for ever!!! Because you know, the cops come to our houses everyday and check out mags. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SmittyMHS 603 Posted February 16, 2018 If the cops come to your house with a search warrant you have bigger things to worry about then illegal mags. Don't ask don't tell...INCLUDING here. 8 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PK90 3,569 Posted February 16, 2018 2 hours ago, 1LtCAP said: CONSTRUCTIVE INTENT Actually, "constructive intent" is written in NJ law under the "assault weapon" part of chapter 54 (administrative code). Quote A part or combination of parts designed or intended to convert a firearm into an assault firearm, or any combination of parts from which an assault firearm may be readily assembled if those parts are in the possession or under the control of the same person. IMHO, there is no law addressing "constructive intent" of magazines. Quote Large capacity ammunition magazine" means a box, drum, tube or other container, which is capable of holding more than 15 rounds of ammunition to be fed continuously and directly here from into a semi-automatic firearm. A large capacity ammunition magazine that has been permanently altered so that it is not capable of holding more than 15 rounds of ammunition will cease to be defined as a "large capacity ammunition magazine." An ammunition magazine, which has been temporarily blocked or modified from holding more than 15 rounds, as by a piece of wood or a pin, is still considered to be a "large capacity ammunition magazine. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JohnnyB 4,289 Posted February 18, 2018 The problem is, all of my 15/30 round mags were permanently blocked by a glued or welded floor plate. If I were to try to disassemble them, I would destroy them! If they are going to ban 15 round mags, might as well take a trip over the bridge and load up on 30s and disassemble them before returning to the PRNJ. As I see it, constructive intent applies to the weapon and not to the magazines. If the Feds get stupid one day and ban the manufacture and sale of 30 round magazines but grandfather what you had pre-ban, at least you have some! 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
