    Default 1224 and magazine extensions for mags that were already >15 capacity

    Other than "I will not comply" what say you to the purchase and installation of magazine extensions on mags that are already greater than 15 capacity?

    Say I want to add a +2 baseplate to a Glock 17, 17 round mag that I owned prior to July 1. Could I order a +2 and install it?

    What about extensions that are themselves greater than 15 rounds as in a +18 nordic extension for a PMag.

    My reading of 1224 says to me that I can't make a new configuration that holds more than 15 but is silent on modifying one that was already greater than 15. Is that wishful thinking on my part?

    I would say you should consult your lawyer about how willing he is to defend you if this ever came to legal charges. I personally think the law is on weak constitutional and statutory grounds but I can't afford to be a test case -- definitely not worth going through to get 2 more rounds on a 17-rd mag; I'd rather just get more mags.

    The good news for you is that Terry Maketa has already said he doesn't plan on enforcing these dubious laws so from practical standpoint, you probably don't need to worry about it.

    You as an adult, should do what ever it is you feel comfortable doing. You interpretation and legality of the newest crock of shit ramrodded through the state and signed by an effete governor are only as valid as the ones empowered to enforce it.

    You understand them perfectly as written? I can interpret them to mean just about anything, that's why Kopel filed the lawsuit... "Constitutionally vague" I believe is the term.

    Just trying to decide whether to split the budget between mags and extensions or just get the mags now and add extensions later. As much as I hate to admit it, even to myself, the July 1 deadline is driving some purchases.

    The dead horse is sufficiently beaten on whether or not the laws are constitutional, enforceable or will be enforced.

    Mags.

    Take pictures of your mags with a newpaper or other material not dated by you. Make sure your camera is set to the correct date.

    Or buy a newspaper pre-July 1st and take pictures whenever the hell you want.

    Yeah. That was exactly my first thought.

    I kept all my receipts for mag purchases. I'll carry it with my range bag. No guarantees though.
