    Unhappy Had my mags capped with magblocks...

    It's finalized I'm moving to Colorado. Because of this, as much as I heard many, many different sides of the mag issue in the state (and contacted CO law enforcement), I was generally advised bringing 15+ mags into CO no matter any workaround or law on the books would be a bad idea. Because I'm a "play it safe" kinda guy, I sent all my mags for my various firearms out to a gunsmith out here prior to moving to have them permanently magblocked using mag blocks from magblocks.com

    Maybe unlike some, 15 rounds is fine for my needs at the range. And IDK, after move #3 (counting this upcoming one) I'm ready to be done moving. So I'm okay that the work is irreversible.

    That way I can keep all my current mags but remain compliant. I'm probably going to get tons of crap for this, but I'm doing it now while I have time. That, and I have my feelings on this. My gunsmith is also going to write me a letter stating the work done and that the mags are CO compliant, if I ever need it.

    Stay tuned. Don't have them back quite yet.

    Make sure you send a copy of your letter to the ATF and ask them if you're good to go.

    Waste of time, money, and mags, even though I'm sure many people telling you it wasn't necessary.
    'Unless a law-abiding individual has a firearm for his or her own defense, the police typically arrive after it is too late. With rigor mortis setting in, they mark and bag the evidence, interview bystanders, and draw a chalk outline on the ground' - Judge Benitez , 2019, Duncan v. Becerra.

    What's done is done, at this point you are just browbeating. [sarcasm]

    I'd rather it be a waste of money and consciously made the effort to be a compliant future Colorado resident than risk end up being "that guy".

    In the long run the money I'm out is small.

    I'll say it.

    I suspect Colorado is going to be very hard on you so if you haven't already, don't forget to stock up on your supply of Vagisil, dude.

    I've lived there before, and I'm not this keyboard pushover that you think I am. I have my reasoning for doing the things I do.

    No one cares and no one is looking at mfr dates unless it’s a tacked on charge for something else.

    I get no one probably cares and I could have probably gotten by without, but I interned at a law office last summer for fun and learned quickly people who "hoped for the best" and did nothing about something quickly got into trouble and needed an attorney. And that was here.

    You can call me whatever you want. However, I walked away from that internship having a greater respect for the law and the power it enthralls when people don't respect its power and what it can do.

    I don't like that you ask for advice & then wholly disregard the thoughtful opinions offered in response.

    I don't like that you queue the narrative & feign ignorance & cite 'because reasons'.

    Your behavior is a disservice to the fine folks on this forum.
