Quick question,

 

I was just down at Shore Shot and asked about renting a 9 MM XDM the big guy behind the counter told me that the 9 XDM is illeagal in nj becaus of the magazine holding more than 15 rounds. I thought that if you got a mag for a gun like this pinned to 15 then the gun was legal can someone let me know what is right. I like the xdm in 45 and wanted to see if i liked in 9 was considering for a future purchase

 

Thanks in advance

 

Mikeythumbs waiting since nov 28th for my jackson FID

You are correct if the magazine gets pinned its g2g but hey they are only a gun store why should they know the laws LOL

The gun is NJ legal.

The >15 round mags, however, are not.

 

Most NJ FFLs will take the easy (read assholish) way out and not bother with the gun rather than permanently limit the mag capacity to 15 or less prior to delivering the package to the buyer.

 

Same with the XDM40, afaik (My son-in-law, a local LEO tried, but was refused as it was for personal purchase, not duty use)

Silver bullet in rockaway boro sells the XDM w/ pinned mags. I know its not in the area that you are in but if you look around I'm sure you'll find one

thanks guys i though I was right that as long as you can get 15 rd maghs or have them pinned then the gun is legal. Oh well you live and learn the worst par tis this was after i went in bought 3 boxes of 9mm and range fee for the day plus rental of gun. cnat wait till i get my FID and can buy a gun instead of rent and go find a real range and buy normal priced ammo 28 dollars a box for 9 mm at SS

If anyone knows where to obtain glock 17 15 round mags, please also let us know. Thanks

Promag and National Magazine both make 15 round Springfield XD magazines. They are in stock at Midway USA. I would post a link, but work blocks Midway USA.

Talk to Paul @ Arms & Ammo. I ordered an XDM 3.8 9mm from him and am picking it up next week. He pinned the mag to 15.

 

Cheers.

I have 4 Glock 17 mags pinned to 15 by Paul at Arms & Ammo. All still working fine with more than 500 rounds put through them.

Do xd mags work in the xdm

You know what, I stand corrected. I missed the "M" part.

 

They don't, at least in the 9mm and .40 cal. I'm glad you brought that up.

Do xd mags work in the xdm

 

XD45 mags fit in an XDM45, not sure about the other calibers.

Do xd mags work in the xdm

 

Only .45 cal mags can be used in both XDs and XDMs. .40 and 9mm mags do not.

AS LEO, you are exemt (until you retire).

I have an XDM 3.8 compact in .40. Paul from A&A pinned my mags and I bought another pinned from him.

 

My LEO buddy liked mine so much, he went out and bought one himself. He will pin the mags prior to his retirement next yr. Right now, he does not have to.

 

Anyone is more then welcome to shoot my XDM. I LOVE IT!

Unless there is something I'm missing, that is not entirely accurate.

You can't just go buy "assault weapons" or high cap mags because you are a LEO.

I'm surprised Springfield doesn't offer a 10 round mag option for restricted states like Glock and S&W do.

A letter from my dept would be needed stating it is for duty use. Otherwise no i am not exempt

I had a similar issue trying to get an M&P 9mm Pro. It comes with a 17 round mag, and S&W refuses to ship it to NJ. So it had nothing to do with any FFL's not wanting to block the mags. I called S&W a few times to ask if it there was any way around that one, and they consistently told me there was not. I suppose I could have gotten one shipped from one of the online brokers to an FFL and then had the mags blocked, but I just went ahead and got the regular 9mm.

That's what I did for my 9L. I ordered it on line and had the dealer in Texas keep the mags and just ship the gun.

One place told me that mags have to be pinned from the manufacturer to be legal in nj

If it is his off-duty weapon he's good

Yes..just need a letter from the dept usually

I go to Shore Shot all the time, members get a discount on ammo, but I think the non-member price is more like $20. I never paid that much even before I joined.

They wanted 42 bux for 45acp last time i went over a year ago

I went iun rentedf the gun paid range fee and then got 2 boxes of 9mm and it weas 96 dollars shot almost both boxs through a so/da sig i liked went back out got 2 more bboxes then tries a ruger full size 9 and the m& p since i stayed in same caliber no upcharge in rental fee but second 2 boxes were 58 and change i kid you not and when renting you have to use their ammo

Yes..just need a letter from the dept usually

 

I do not believe you technically need a letter, but I would get it just in case, but y9ou are most certainly exempt if it s your off duty weapon (like my buddy's).

I have a buddy in wayne who has the xdm 9mm with pinned mags and he bought it from Silver Bullet in Rockaway. Call Frank, he'll hook you up.
