ok to clear things up.

YES! this really is what happened! we are currently searching for the person who's mag may be missing but so far no luck.

So we can all stop assuming i have made this up, or stole it. its a legitimate question. if you dont have a better answer than "give it back" then just dont reply

All I'm doing is giving the guy the benefit of doubt sensei.

Hi cap mags are one of those things that, IMO unless you can prove you've owned it pre-ban, I probably wouldn't screw around with it buddy or no buddy.

Felonies aren't a good thing. Guns are not your right, they are a privilege granted to you by the California Department of Justice. If you think otherwise, you are sadly mistaken.

if this person is not a DOJ troll then i am mickey mouse.

go FUD yourself frenchy. here in America we are innocent until proven guilty, and keeping and bearing arms is a right.

sorry if you didnt get the word "possession" into the law when it was passed. tough luck on that one.

- there will, in the future, when we can clear the decks, be a way,
not fixable by any updated legislation where a 'special path' to
acquire modern hicap mags will be exploitable. This special path
will increase the mag cost but will remove California control over
that specific instance of acquisition. [Mags acquired via such a
path, however, cannot be transferred to other Californians nor
can they be exported and reimported into CA since the pre-2000
travel in/out exemption is not applicable.]

I'm listening...

I started several conversations here on the forum on the subject of 10+ magazines in Ca. Had some questions out of curiosity.

Never got a clear picture on the subject and gave up on it.....

Acquiring a hicap mag by receving, finding it, etc. or whatever cockamamie damned situation than can be envisioned is still illegal.

the "Finding" bit I still want to push back against, if the item itself is not illegal, and finding is not an illegal form of acquisition, this still seems legal and provides the reasonable doubt scenario in any high cap charge.

- idiots that say "OK I can get the magazine legally but the supplier is
violating the law" are just that. You can't have 'half a crime', and
PC 31 effectively says all parts of transaction are participants in the
illegal action.

If this is tested and proven, more or less case law fact, then this is the bit that needs to be added to the wiki to avoid some of the, whoopsie amazon shipped me a high cap thread. A concise addition of PC 31, in the same vein of how the 3year statut is listed in the high cap section of the wiki would be a good addition.

Call your local gun store and they can tell you if it is or not in your state.
Cheers.

I would not advise anyone to get legal information from the local gun shop.

Still sounds restrictive. However restrictive is a good step in the right direction, how is it possible to make a law "not fixable"?

I still dont get it .....

If someone HAS a magazine in the state. DO they have to show how they got it ?

IMHO the whole magazine thing is mess!!!
