Easy there BSZ. I was merely stating that we don't need to help the other side by pointing out some of the deficiencies in their new baby.
You're good with me.

Sorry man, I have been pretty down on the whole thing but I have not broke the law but I sure want to rant and rave about how bad these things are. Either way things will work out, cant wait to see what happens on the 11th, maybe these laws will get suspended with all of the sheriffs doing there part, hope is all I got right now,

Block them to 15 then sell with the gun, it's very easy to do. if you were closer i would do them for you.

I see this as a pretty simple issue. If I decide to sell a firearm with > 15rd mags within Kolorado, I will first insert a long screw through the base plate up into the body of the mag, effectively limiting the amount of rounds it can hold. I shall then epoxy the holy living hell out of said screw such that removing it would destroy the base plate, making it a permanent mod (can't be removed without making the mag unserviceable).

This seems legal to me and then the new owner can do whatever they want with the new setup. Of course, it's all academic since I refuse to go through an FFL for a private sale and that's now illegal. Therefore, I'm not selling anything here, especially if I don't know you.

Note to the mods: Do what you must, but I don't see this describing a way to circumvent the law or any other such nonsense. It describes an easy way to modify certain magazines to hold 15 round or less. If any other member should describe what they'd do with the modified mag, delete their post.

^^^This. Even though Jim is a crotchety old fart, he does top quality work and a hell of a great guy to deal with.

All three of you are horribly, incredibly, and ridiculously wrong....

"Designed to be readily converted to accept more than" Is the key phrase. Its a shit show on extenders, removable floor plates, etc.

BUT!!!!! If they were origninally more than 15 rounds, and you have converted them to not allow more than 15 rounds, such a magazine, in its construction, as the original magazine and your modifications, was designed to be readily converted from 20,30,40 rounds to 15 rounds. And conversely, was designed to be readily converted again to take more than 15. I've consulted 3 lawyers (all clients) on this topic.

Don't do this, or you may be one of the examples. And we are not allowing these on this site.

J, I Dont quite understand. So you can convert your own to say 15 and convert them back but you can't convert them to 15 to include in a sale since they were originally more than 15?

Also, I thought they came up with some extra language based on the floor plates and extenders since basically all mags with a baseplate could be converted easily

[spyder]

If they can hold more than 15, they are illegal, even if you convert to hold 15 or less. So, any 20, 30, and up is illegal no matter what. Unless* you plastic weld the floor plate to it making it permanent after converting it to 15 or less. However, you could still get in trouble some would see it as a 30 rounder still, till you proved your case in court, so tread lightly.

Exactly, you can't block a magazine by sticking a spacer in it.
