I bought an AMT lightning pistol with 3 mags. one day at the range I realized they held 12 rounds instead of the ten I thought they held.
this,as it turns out is a felony in my state. They are Ramline plastic mags. and I have'nt been able to find them anywhere on line.
So my question(s) are. Were they meant to hold 12 or is that just a fluke or mistake on the makers part.[?] And if I fill the base with epoxy to limit the capacity would they then be legal; I live in hawaii.

AMT Lightening was discontinued in the 90's after being sued by Ruger. The normal mag capacity is 10 rounds. Sounds like the 12 rounds are a fluke. Just load 10 in it. If you epoxy the mag, you may ruin it. I doubt the State of Hawaii is going to watch how many .22 rimfire can can shove in your mag.
