I had a "spirited discussion" (argument) with a buddy last night about pre ban high capacity mags. He claims that it is illegal to put a hi-cap in a post ban gun - I disagree. Who is right? This may seem like a dumb question, but it is really bugging me. Thanks for your input. Shoot straight!

    Guys, This has come up a couple of times before and I didn't get any strong feedback. I went to the Indy 1500 show today and was looking at a Ruger P-89. The dealer said it was legal to put a hi cap mag in this gun even though it was made after '94. I have a large amount of hi cap mags (of various types) but I thought they were only legal in a pre '94 piece. Who was right? Does the same rule apply to AR's and AK's? Thanks in advance.

    I am going out of the country soon to places where hi cap mags are legal. If I was to purchase one or two for personal use and bring it home with me would that be legal?

    There was a time where soldiers stationed overseas were ordering them in mass quantity because they lived in countries where they could be legally purchased. Then they took them home. Some succeeded. Some failed. Much jail. Much jail.

    Like put a rope through it and tell the guys at the airport it's a necklace? Or shove some quarters in it and tell em its a change purse?

    What about mailing it to yourself? Or would that be worse since your now using the US Postal Service to break the law.
