No, it doesn't make much sense, but that's still the reality for a lot of modern guns here in MA with reduced capacity. I'd personally still bring it and wait to get some 10rd mags.

At no point did I say the majority of metal magazines were made that way. I actually followed it up pointing out it was Glock. So why you harping on the minutiae over points I never made?

It is possible I didn't understand what you were describing. What I was describing was: A purpose-built limited magazine (A 10 rd Glock 17 OEM mag, for instance) would have interior metal rails built into the metal sleeve. Glock does this by putting a triangle shaped rail running the length of...

But if the blocker is part of the baseplate assembly, couldn't one just break that off and/or just replace the baseplate with a standard cap baseplate? That's probably me overthinking it, but I'm a self-admitting p*ssy when it comes to legal risk tolerance.

Well, like it said...it's a risk tolerance thing. I suppose one could epoxy the baseplates.

"Readily converted" in my mind is the key factor. For instance, mags where you take a baseplate off and remove space blocker and put the mag back together--those are the mags that come to mind. That's kind of why I personally dislike the notion of standard cap blocked mags for compliance (as...

To be fair, my LTC class was mainly a 1 hour NRA video from 1985 and a rather disinterested instructor only answering "can I ship my X gun up here (lol...no)" questions from a southerner transplant.

One thing I still don't understand about "large capacity" is how it applies to semi auto shotguns given the various length of shells. Do you defer to the longest or smallest shell size for the magic five round capacity? For instance, a Mossberg 18.5" 590s can hold five 3" shells, or six 2 1/4"...

P80's do seem to have softer polymer than OEM, but that resulting in catastrophic failure? Not so sure. Mine has lasted several hundreds of rounds without any worries, but that's just a sample pool of 1. As for the cost effectiveness--I don't really think that was the goal of an 80% kit. You may...

I read somewhere that for MA, it is either a mag disconnect or LCI. Has to have one or the other. But I think I read that on some blog a couple years ago, so I'm not quoting that as scripture. Would make a little sense though how sometimes you see it, and sometimes you don't.

This. Although, one could remove the mag disconnect spring/lever. I was under the impression that this compliance aspect is only for point of sale, and has no bearing on ownership (meaning once owned, you can remove it). But IANAL.

JESUS CHRIST!!! You're bringing a gun on a boat?!? Do you have any idea how dangerous that is?!? Better make it safe by leaving it unattended on a wheelchair in a mop closet.

There's this guy on this board that sells pre Maura AR's at a modest 200% mark up. I bet he'd know where to get a G21.

Simple solution:

Nobody can be told what an upper decker is, you have to see it for yourself.

I said an upper. Rewster said a couple of guns. I'm pretty sure Len-2A answered the base question already, but I was putting a spin on it for what I thought might be helpful info if true.

Could a person bring a non-registered part, like just an upper in this scenario?

I always forget that they are just one of other "evil features" and if you were to go with, say a featureless stock, you could then add a feature back. I'm always doing the feature math in my head assuming a pistol grip on a rifle, which is probably the wrong approach.

Threaded barrel nonsense has to be one of the dumbest gun laws on the books in MA because it is largely redundant to already having flash and noise suppressors illegal for us peons. All it does is force us to pin and weld comps or brakes just to get the barrels we want that only have threaded...
