Must work at Dicks.
It's legal yes. Do I want to take time off work to fight a bullshit high-cap charge in court after a false arrest? It's not about being afraid of your shadow it's calculated risk. I feel 'safe enough' with 10+1, just like someone feels safe enough carrying a SW 642. Big dealYou don't get it... Being comfortable carrying a .22LR Derringer doesn't make you a cuck, carry whatever you want. Being afraid of doing something LEGAL (e.g. carrying perfectly legal pre-bans) is what makes you a cuck.
Why do you even have any guns if you're afraid of your own shadow?
Consider that while the 10 round ban is not aggressively enforced in MA, if you use a firearm in an interpersonal encounter of the worst kind, considerable resources will be brought to bear to find some hook to hang you on. Expect a thorough examination of the magazine to see if they can find a charge.A lot of you tough guys on here try to be all hard and stuff - "Ima Free Man an carry whatever I want coz second amendment." Many of you call us a 'cuck' for carrying 10 rounders in our EDC. Sure I could pop in a preban mag but if a cop pulls me over and wants my weapon and decides to be a dick about it for whatever reason, some of us don't have the time to deal with that kind of drama in court. So the conclusion is - if you're a cuck like me, carry ten or less. If you want to still stay legal 'technically', carry true preban mags. If you're one of those alpha male patriots, carry whatever you want.
Why would you get a "false arrest"?It's legal yes. Do I want to take time off work to fight a bullshit high-cap charge in court after a false arrest?

Do you think you will be walking down the street and be randomly selected for a search?
LOL cops are asking you if you carry?I've been pulled over for speeding. Cops know you have an LTC and when asked 'are you carrying'? Obviously if I am, I'm not gonna lie. A couple times they have asked me to remove it from my holster and hand it to them for the duration of the stop. I would imagine they take a look at the mag when they handle it. Never had a problem since I've always been respectful and a good little beta cuck with my neutered 10 rounders.

You must be doing something wrong.
Do they also take the mag out and count the rounds?
well, that s*cks.Yup. I get it back with the mag out and the chambered round dropped in my hand. LEO encounters probably are different if you're like me and look like Colion Noir.
The question is weighing the risk of not having those extra rounds and getting shot because 11 rounds did not do the job vs. the risk of giving the system a "convict me" wildcard in the event you use your gun in self defense.Yeah, 'better to be judged by 12 than carried by 6', right? Except when the people in charge of 'jury selection' pick the 12 from Newton and Sharon for example, good luck.

Survey says "nope".Soif I have a mag with six rounds in the gun and another mag with six rounds in my pocket,am I OK? Jack.
Operating Operators call the Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms Help LineDon't bother calling the police for advice. Very few of them are knowledgeable about the nuances of the law, and you have no recourse if Officer Smith tells you something is legal and it isn't and you subsequently get busted for it.
