I tried search and came up empty, as in these responses only refer to what is still illegal. A 30 round mag modified to 15 is still illegal in NJ as per the LOE's that i have spoken to because you can simply change the spring back to make it 30 rnd again.

Try here.
I haven't tried these yet, but for the price I plan on ordering a few to test out.

PK90's http://www.arms-n-ammo.com/ was selling 15-round PMAGs for a while... very nice. he also used to sell 15-round metal mags and you can still buy the kits to make your own via his site. his kits involve cutting (permanently) the length of the mags down and attaching the new baseplates.

Please post your finding's when you can, it would be greatly appreciated. My biggest concern would be that if they are truly sized to a 15 round capacity/length......not a modified 20 or 30 rounder that borders on the legality of being "permanently fixed"...whatever that really means.  Thanks in advance.

These work for me.

Left is the CProducts CA legal 10 round mag. Center is a CA. legal 10 round  Magpul P-Mag. Right is a cutdown Magpul 15 round mag. I've had them all for a few years now.

Cproducts are a no go as they still are still physically a 30 rounder.  The only guaranteed way to be compliant is to cut it down to 15, then it is truly a 15 rounder.

You have a machine shop and you need a how to on making a 30rd mag into a 15rd mag? Most people get by in a parking lot with a hack saw! Seriously though, look at some that are done, count the ribs, leave the spring length though, I cut one in 1/2 and it held 16 (OMG) So I had to modify the follower to make it taller so it'd bottom out at 15. Anyway the next one I do I'll leave the spring alone, see how many fit and cut it down a couple coils at a time to fine tune it to 15.

I found this if it helps cut down PMAGS it doesn't have blueprints though http://www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=3&f=4&t=398056&page=1
