I see that Midway sells an adapter/spacer for the 20 round P mags to bring it to 10 rounds but is states on the package that these will not make a "legal" mag in a limited state. I thought I saw people gluing in plastic rods to limit P Mags, isn't this the same thing? If they are not legal because they can be removed, could you glue the mags together to make the mod permanent?

Glue doesn't work well with PMAGs as it can't bond well with the parts. The teflon additive that Magpul uses in the plastic to make it self-lubricating makes for extremely difficult bonding. A little physical shock like dropping them is usually enough to break the bonds of most adhesives.

 

What Magpul has done though is they modified the baseplate so it's easier to rivet shut.

If you put in the blocker and then rivet it shut, is is NJ legal?

The opinion of the board would be that it is.

Thanks, I just went to your site and see that I can order them already done from you. Seems like an easier way to go.

How would you rivet the baseplate shut?

The newest revision 20rd bodies have a hole molded in the baseplate. You could always drill a hole yourself and insert a rivet too.

No kidding. You have them in stock?

I do but can't ship a mag to a NJ resident. Once you do get a mag, you'd also have to make your own limiting device since Magpul doesn't make a 15rd limiter, just 5rd and 10rd.

No rebuild kits available?

The only thing I'd be wary about with a rebuild kit is NJSP hasn't said if they're kosher or not the way the CA AG has.

I see

IM just curious if you could post a pic of this hole. You know i buy my mags from you, i am just curious about this hole.

I just ordered a stock and mag. The build is almost complete

New baseplate on top. At this time, only the new black 20rd PMAGs are coming with this baseplate

 

interesting, wonder what the future plans are...

I believe it's to make it easier for people to make a 5rd or 10rd mag using a Magpul limiter. This way, the end user doesn't have to drill a hole to place a rivet.

i got ya, so you go throw the limiter in, pop a rivet in and call it good.

 

I saw on midways site the other day the were listing 15 round pmags, but they were out of stock.. wondered if this was a future product?

Honestly, I have no idea. If you look in the 2010 catalog, Magpul shows off plans for a 15rd limiter but it's dropped in the 2011 catalog.

Guess the scrapped that plan!

Riflegear.com sells a 20rd PMAG permanently modified to a 15rd mag.

Not to poop in your cornflakes but MidwestPX (who is on this forum) has them for cheaper and with different color options, body styles and ranger plates.

Just ordered a couple more from Ty. Good service, speedy shipping and a forum sponsor. Can't go wrong with that?

Ray they used to be cheaper. Now it's the same price or $1 more.

Not to pee in your pudding, but I posted the link because MidwestPX said he couldn't ship to nj

You realize he was referring to the fact that he can't ship magazines that are over 15 rounds to NJ, right? Or is this just one big stick measuring contest where using your brain is not allowed?

Ray they used to be cheaper. Now it's the same price or $1 more.

 

He has group buys and they become 17 or 18 bucks a piece. Can't beat that.

I just placed my second order with MidwestPX mags, he certainly does ship NJ legal mags to NJ.

Copy that.

Got 6 mags from him when we did the last group buy

Ray they used to be cheaper. Now it's the same price or $1 more.

 

If I can get something for the same price or a buck or few more and support a Forum member and business I will go out of my way to do that, great to have local sources for things in this Internet shopping world we live in today.
