Selling mags

[newracer]

Hold on to them. They are not very valuable and it may be hard to replace them legally.

I have mags for rifles I don't even own yet.

I'll destroy them for you. What can I say, I'm a nice guy.

Wait, weren't they lost in a boating accident?

If someone lost mags in a tragic boating accident and someone else found said mags, would that have to be reported to the Commissar?

I bought some extra 9mm Glock, CZP09 and FNS9 and .308 magazines prior to the July 1, 2013 law going into effect. I still don't have a FNS9 or Glock9, but the Glock mags are useful in my PCCs. I am not selling any magazines and I just hope I can keep them all in good repair.

I had 2 of the .223Pmags crack at a match on Saturday.

All good advice. I'm trying to thin my herd so I'm getting out of the 7.62/308 business. This trip overseas my biggest problem is storage of ammo, so I need to lighten my load. I know this makes me sound like the 18 year old living in his mother's basement but my mother doesn't want to store my ammo, plus some of the stuff I've been lugging around for 20 plus years.

I'm going to chime in, in agreement with the majority of replies. Keep everything you can store reasonably and properly. It's not only about the convenience of already having mags and ammo for a "new" toy, but it can also add considerable expense to the purchase. Nothing worse than getting a new-to-you firearm, only to have it sit idle while/if you have to raise funds to procure ammo and extra mags.
Plus, with an election looming, availability may be effected.

You should destroy them. They're evil.

Rhonda Fields, why are you on here, and what did you do with Ray? How did you even get his login info? Bribed with cheetoes?

I would also suggest waiting till at least mid November to make a decision.

If the election goes the wrong way, those may be worth a whole lot more in a big hurry...

Dealers (FFL) are exempt from the mag capacity law. I don't know how this would help but it gives you another source to transfer it to or through. Maybe consignment or trade for ammo or guns.

I would keep them if you have the room. I had magazines for about 20 years that I didn't have guns to match. I'm glad I have them now. Maybe someday you'll get another gun to fit them.

I would keep them, but if you know an FFL or a friend in law enforcement (LE are exempt as well) you could sell them to him/her. The bill also mentions continuous possession (meaning you can't technically loan them to anyone); not that I've ever looked at a mag and said "This mag had definitely been illegally loaned to someone."

I HAVE made this mistake in the past (before the mag ban). Talk about getting "seriously pissed off" when you have to re-buy mags you've bought before.

If you need to store a box of stuff, I probably won't be moving for 12 years or so......
