Lewis is facing multiple charges, including unlawful possession of a firearm, unlawful possession of ammunition, and possession of a large capacity feeding device, police said"

Must have been the one they planted to enhance the charges.

All three charges seem to be based on him not having a license. Need a license to possess a large cap mag

I'm not aware if any Ruger .22LR handgun having over 10 rd magazines available for them. I wouldnt be surprised if ProMag made one though.

Edit: I suppose it's entirely possible it was a 10/22 charger...

It looks like two separate instances but the article is behind a paywall.

“Large capacity feeding device” is language used in MGL. If you’re a MA resident, you may want to go through and actually read your laws.

“Large capacity feeding device” is language used in MGL. If you’re a MA resident, you may want to go through and actually read your laws.

The question may be not what is a LCFD, but what LCFD is used in a Ruger 22 handgun.

 

[PappyM3]

There’s no reason he didn’t have some other magazine on him. It’s pretty common for inner city criminals to have mismatch ammo, magazines, and firearms on them. They acquire what they can.

 

[DPR]

I'm not aware if any Ruger .22LR handgun having over 10 rd magazines available for them. I wouldnt be surprised if ProMag made one though.

Edit: I suppose it's entirely possible it was a 10/22 charger...

Ha! If it was a charger then they would be calling it an assault weapon of some degree

 

[PappyM3]

Looks to be this:


Can’t tell if there’s a +2 extension on it, and they don’t show any other magazine.

One of the nicest guns I've seen from BPD. What a shame.

 

[PappyM3]

One of the nicest guns I've seen from BPD. What a shame.

Hopefully it is promptly returned to the owner if it was stolen.

 

[snax]

They called it a LCFD. Let the suspect prove in court that it's not.
Much in the same way with all of the $100 'peban' u notch glock mags can be mis id'd.
Some dickhead cop wants to jam u up on it, they will, and u will spend $$$ defending yourself in court over it.

 

[swatgig]

I bought some mags for my Mark I. They only hold 9 rounds, but if you take it apart and clip the stopper, you can fit 11 rounds in it. I clipped mine so it holds 10. There's a video here showing how to do it, but mine was plastic, so all I needed was a wire cutter to clip it instead of grinding.

[daekken]

"Officers said they went to 3 Woodbine St. in Roxbury" - I interpreted this as they went to his house and found a high cap mag. Could have been for any gun, not necessarily a Ruger.

 

[swatgig]

This also requires the cop to be able to accurately count to ten.

 

[Uzi2]

It's highly unlikely to be returned.

More likely to be tossed into a smelter of stolen from the evidence locker.

 

[Glocklike tendencies]

i am curious, Is there a provision in the MA law for unlawful possession of a "NON-large capacity feeding device" ??

 

[shootymacshootface]

They can call it anything they want, facts be dammed.

 

[308rifleman]

i am curious, Is there a provision in the MA law for unlawful possession of a "NON-large capacity feeding device" ??

Not that I am aware of. I had to explain to my little girl why she can't have those "big" (25 round) magazines for the 10/22 she recently received for her eighth birthday. Not sure if she understood, but I told her that is the law here in MA and we are stuck with it.

 

[NannerClips]

I recently caught my cat with a large capacity feeding device.

 

[MisterHappy]

It's unlawful, under MGLs, for an unlicensed person to possess a mag that holds more than 10 rounds.

Maybe one of Rosie's soup spoons. Jack.

Nope.

Magazines that hold 10 or fewer rounds are completely unregulated.

But 11 rounds is a felony. (If unlicensed or the magazine is newer than 1994)

It's that big-ass spoon they use to serve at the Chinese Buffett.

I'm still too pissed off at the Chinese to eat Chinese food. I have to call it Asian cuisine.

 

[Spanz]

The question may be not what is a LCFD, but what LCFD is used in a Ruger 22 handgun.

 

[AHM]

I had to explain to my little girl why she can't have those "big" (25 round) magazines for the 10/22 she recently received for her eighth birthday.

After the 'rona calms down a little more,
take her to lunch at the Barn Store of New England,
and then show her the 55 Gallon Drum of Felonies in the firearms department.
P. S. In springtime, the peeping noise is boxes of mail-order chicks.

 

[Zappa]

One of the nicest guns I've seen from BPD. What a shame.

And the serial number hasn't been defaced either.
