| Still pretty new to the AR world and I just purchased some 30-round pmag rebuild kits and want to make sure I stay legal. I know there is a ton of debate about what is considered permanent and was hoping someone could provide some clarity. Is just installing a magblock good enough or do I need to weld/rivet/glue (whatever) the baseplate on as well? |

Quoted: I'd use (a lot pf) epoxy so that the only way to remove the block is to destroy the magazine. |

Thanks guys. Sure would be nice if we could get an actual definition/description/whatever as to what the law considers permanent. Wishful thinking I know. The law doesn't have a definition of permanence. What we do have as a guideline for what DOJ considered permanent is from an attempt they made to re-define what a fixed magazine meant, by defining "permanently attached" or something like that. The definition included a continuous bead weld, rivets, or epoxy cement as examples of permanent. The general concensus is that putting in a magazine capacity limiter like Magpul has available, along with epoxying the baseplate in place from the inside constitutes permanence in compliance with DOJ's proposed definition from years ago. |
