    It's a measure of the civility in this country that no ones seems to fear constantly pissing off the people who own lots of guns.

    No friends or relatives that live in other states? They could mail you your magazines that you left in the other state.

    This is unfortunately very true. I bought so many magazines before July 1 it was unreal, but I could NOT find these. I still have 10, but I wanted more because I plan to buy several more M&P9's.

    Just sayin though, they don't date stamp their mags, and neighboring states don't have mag restrictions.

    You are 100% correct and let's just say....I have "other options" in the works.

Now, prefacing it with this; I am a civilian who works for a police agency. The shop knew that going into the sale. After showing them a copy of my ID and drivers license everything seemed to be moving along quite nicely. 4473 filled out, backgound check passed....and then I get this: "Well, we have a problem." Because I am a civilian employee for a police agency they can sell me the firearm, but not the three 17-round magazines it comes with - can't "block" them to 15, sorry, no-can-do. So, the three magazines have to go back to S&W and replaced with 10-round magazines - No ETA on their arrival but I'm guessing sometime next year.

    Now, I completely understand the law and the owner did the right thing. I'm just bitching and moaning because this law is garbage and it sucks to have a new gun in my safe that I can't go shoot. Not looking for sympathy, just ranting.
    Sorry I dont feel bad for you anyone else in law enforcement having to follow the same law. Shitty law but it dont make you any more entitled than me or anyone else. You work for us and need to have the same rules.

    Again they should be having to comply to the same laws as the people who pay their salary.
