The problem is I'm not sure where those enemy lines are now as a couple new states have recently tried to do magazine bands but then they were challenged and I don't know what the status is or what's going on.
I already sold the vast majority of my pre-94 mags.
However I still do have a handful of pre 94 AK mags and pre-94 AR mags.
More importantly and what I'm really interested in is that I have a large number of magazines that were made after 1994 but before 2021 2022 or 2023.
It's my understanding that Washington Delaware and Oregon maybe one or two other states recently past magazine bans in the 2020s.
What if anything can I do to help them at this point?

The states that are banning them now are not doing the older method of just continuing the expired federal AWB. They are making a ban on all mags after a certain time. Any mag over 10 rounds in WA is banned regardless of when it was made unless it was owned before the law took effect. Pre-whatever makes no difference... other than if you have a mag made after the ban took effect it's sort of prima-facia evidence that you purchased or imported it into the state after the ban and therefore broke the law. So nobody illegally bringing in mags will be bringing in new P-Mags for instance as they are date coded.
Legally there is nothing you can to do help us other than donating to the SAF and praying that the lawsuits go our way. Unless you're speaking totally hypothetically in a fantastic (meaning based in fantasy) way of asking how you'd illegally get mags that can't be shown to have been made after the ban took effect into the hands of residents of these states. Which of course you'd never do for real, since you're a law abiding citizen and wouldn't dare break the law. It's for a book your working on writing right?
