I rock out with my Glock out
- Thread starter water
- Start date
I've got a G19 (short barreled 9mm) that came with 2 17rnd mags. Once Clinton's "assualt weapons ban" (spit) sunset last year, I went and bought 3 factory glock 32 round mags and 2 more 17 round ones.
Yes, the 32 round mags stick out of the bottom of the gun.
No, it is not practical to carry the 32's.
Yes, they are a hell of a lot of fun at the range.
Of course, the class III stuff my dad has still trumps the pistolas.

(Not familiar with the laws...) Can you own them or just not buy them? Even under the fed law, ownership wasn't illegal and the trade in pre-ban hi-cap mags was abundant (and expensive). The lift of the ban just meant sales of newly-manufactured mags was allowed to civvies again.
If you can own, do you just need to visit a gun show in another state to purchase?
I mean I can only get "hi-cap" mags manufactured before 1994. We can replace the bodies if you crush the old ones and keep them. The only problem is that there is no clarification of NY law, no one has every been prosecuted for it and the State Troopers (who are the only ones that do the firearm law enforcement) cant give you advice on what to do.SpyderGST said:
My dealer nearly shit his pants when I bought my AR-15 lower and it was engraved LAW ENFORCEMENT/GOVERNMENT USE/ONLY.

I guess "I can only get" means own in that sense then. Sucks. Unclear gun laws are tools of evil.
Well, feel free to visit me in Atlanta and I will take you class 3 shooting with hi-cap mags
And that offer is good to anyone who wants to take me up on it.Yes "own" sorry. I have like a box of SA80 30rnd mags for use but I'm waiting for a custom upper to be built.SpyderGST said:I guess "I can only get" means own in that sense then. Sucks. Unclear gun laws are tools of evil.

If I go to Atl I shall. ThornBird is always bugging me to come visit.
I enjoy the 19, much more comfortable than the 17. Full sized glocks are ridiculously bulky.SpyderGST said:
The shop I frequent might have a Beretta rep stopping by on July 15th ("range day" or some such) so I'm looking forward to putting a few through one of those and a CX4.KNYTE said:
Hydrashocks seem to be the most proven. Gold Dots are kinda new but look good. If you want to go with what's well proven Winchester Rangers are actually the old Black Talons.
Not having a pistol I use the one on the far right.

Have you messed about with the mythological EXTREME SHOCK! stuff yet? The ads say that during testing they shot down both a dragon AND a Japanese Zero with one shot.

They're .223 stuff is only sold to the military because in the hands of a civilian an ill-placed shot could put a hole through the center of the Earth. No shens, we'd all die.
