Interesting to see that Evan addresses how mags are "permanently" altered and that he considers riveting and epoxying to be acceptable;

"(16) May a person lawfully possess a “blocked” large capacity ammunition magazine? A: Yes, as long as it was owned on the day the law was enacted and was permanently blocked during the six-month grace period. Temporarily blocked magazines are not lawful. (NJAC § 13:54-1.2 Definitions) A large capacity ammunition magazine must be permanently altered so that it is not capable of holding more than 10 rounds of ammunition. (e.g. riveted, welded, epoxied, etc.) It cannot be readily restorable. 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 unlawful."

So the way i understand this is that is if i epoxy a magblock (to the follower) in the mag i can no longer open it up ever?  I have to epoxy the baseplate as well?  So no even to clean?  Me confused (as are most of us i guess).  

This stinks.  So for me its $680 in pistol mags.....oh well, summer of overtime for me...

No problem

Once you move, you can use MEK to dissolve the epoxy.
