Will mags with 10 rd limiters be legal? Picture attached!

[THT]

You invite your own error by purchasing a firearm not on the Roster.

Hard to believe there are not any 10-rd magazines available as an alternative.

AFAIK, there aren't any. Part of the draw of the XDm was the relatively high capacity which is why Springfield never bothered making a 10rd magazine for it.

What's to stop a cop from removing the limiter and disposing of it between the time of arrest and your trip to jail?

Well he would have to find a factory base plate to hold the floor plate on, since the whole point is that the limiter replaces one of the factory parts and not just modifies one.

Is a magazine with these 10 rd limiters be legal to sell after today?

Yes, as long as it is "permanently" modified. With those magblocks, as long as you rivet/epoxy the magblock floor plate to the base plate , it's legal. Done this way, you can no longer remove base plate to clean the mag. This is the condition the gun shops sell it as.

If you're coming from out of state where you used them as standard capacity magazines you have the parts with you.

Why doesn't he just sprinkle some crack on you and call it a night and haul you away?

I can see a LEO arresting or confiscating a mag because their own interpretation of it may not be correct to what is actually legal. However, if a LEO went to that much trouble to modify a magazine that they've confiscated only to make you commit a felony, which would seem highly unlikely, then you probably have bigger things to worry about.

Not sure why you consider it an error...What I am doing is perfectly fine, was extremely easy to accomplish, and legal.

I love this gun, and am glad that it is rare in CA. What is the error you refer to?

[BigPimping]

Yes, you are good.

And that is one of the reasons it is not on the Roster. Much as we might not like the Roster, or magazine limits, they are the current law in California.

You don't like it, challenge in court or elect representatives who feel the same.

Nice product photo, above.

I read somewhere today on one of the manufacturer's websites to use Crazy Glue for baseplates with these limiters.

Also, I wonder if these limiters are fully compatible with Pmag M3 Generation.

There are newer limiters available for the M3 PMAGS.




I posted a very similar thread about this here. Have a look at it.

I'm just going to stick with the reduced capacity factory 10 round pmags for now. No confusion there.

the limiters are a part of the magazine. it will not work (floorplate will not mount w/o it).

replacing the limiter portion with a non-limter baseplate ( manufacturing a "hi-cap), is the same adding a +2 floorplate on a standard 10rnd. that doesn't make 10 rounders illegal because they can be converted to 12 rounders by swapping 1 part.

that is my opinion. the law is so ambiguous that no one knows wtf is black and what is white.

I will take a look at it. Thank you.

Update: Now that I looked at it, sorry I did. I think that certain people like to overly complicate the issue.

The error was buying a non-rostered gun that does not apparently have 10-rd magazines, and then complaining about it. If it were a rostered gun it would be sold with 10 round magazines.

So, you don't want to look cool, is that it? Wuss, wuss...
