Except they cannot CARRY mags over 10rds. That has changed. Off duty and retired are not able to carry a large capacity weapon which all weapons are if you have a mag over 10rds.So cops are still above the law even if they retired.
Good, they should just stay home at night and move to FL when they retire.Except they cannot CARRY mags over 10rds. That has changed. Off duty and retired are not able to carry a large capacity weapon which all weapons are if you have a mag over 10rds.

Wait, I get they cannot carry a 10+ mag, but are you saying they cant carry say a G19 with a 10 round mag? I'm thinking you meant it differently
How do you think it plays out though when retired cop gets caught with a standard cap magazine by... another cop? A rhetorical question of course.

The key is the new definition of large capacity weapon. a LCW is defined as HAVING a mag over 10rds in it. So if you have a G19 with a 10rd mag, it is not a LCW. But if you have a G19 with a 15rd mag, it is a LCW.Wait, I get they cannot carry a 10+ mag, but are you saying they cant carry say a G19 with a 10 round mag? I'm thinking you meant it differently
That’s what I was thinking you might have meant, but was not sure.The key is the new definition of large capacity weapon. a LCW is defined as HAVING a mag over 10rds in it. So if you have a G19 with a 10rd mag, it is not a LCW. But if you have a G19 with a 15rd mag, it is a LCW.
Its is convoluted. It is convoluted because they wanted to limit your ability to use your preban mags to carry. They think they are clever.That’s what I was thinking you might have meant, but was not sure.
f***ing crazy…

What are your thoughts on treatment of a post-ban 15rd mag plugged to 10?The key is the new definition of large capacity weapon. a LCW is defined as HAVING a mag over 10rds in it. So if you have a G19 with a 10rd mag, it is not a LCW. But if you have a G19 with a 15rd mag, it is a LCW.
How permanent is it and do you have the parts to revert it?What are your thoughts on treatment of a post-ban 15rd mag plugged to 10?
Exactly. It’s gotta be permanently altered to hold no more than 10 rounds.How permanent is it and do you have the parts to revert it?
Our system of government has been adulterated and replaced with a tyrannical socialist/facist system.Re-quoted for extreme truthfulness and further thought. I'm trying to think of another time and place in history where such silly, worthless, nonsensically stupid (not to mention factually unconstitutional) laws could result in life-altering fines, court costs, imprisonment and branding as a felonious criminal for life.
These certainly are strange times in Massachusetts... and much more strangeness yet to follow. Our system of government is badly broken... possibly beyond repair.![]()

On my phone also - pain in the assI can’t find “large capacity weapon” in H.4885 except where it deletes the term or replaces it with “firearm”
Where are you seeing the new definition?
I’m reading on my phone, so maybe I’m just being blond..
261 “Large capacity firearm”, any firearm that: (i) is semiautomatic with a fixed large capacity feeding device; (ii) is semiautomatic and capable of accepting, or readily modifiable to accept, any detachable large capacity feeding device when both are in the same person’s possession or under their control in a vehicle
On my phone also - pain in the ass
The carry part is contained in 131m where (c) only exempts possession off private property if stored unloaded and locked up.Ah. I was looking for “large capacity weapon”, not “large capacity firearm”.
Not sure how that relates to carry though, since the restriction is on “large capacity feeding device”.
Interestingly, because of the new definition, it might be impossible to comply with the reporting requirements if a gun is stolen: you have to report if it is a large capacity firearm, which is impossible to know because you can’t know if it has a large capacity magazine near it.
The carry part is contained in 131m where (c) only exempts possession off private property if stored unloaded and locked up.
So it's illegal to possess a loaded or unsecured LCFD on any property open to the public.
I think it's down to a semantics at this pointRight.
I’m referring to CrackPot’s post which is about the legality of carrying a Glock 19 with a 10 round magazine.
Maybe I missed his point.
The restrictions say nothing about “large capacity firearms” specifically, they restrict where you can carry a “large capacity feeding device”.
The fact that it turns a “firearm” into a “large capacity firearm” is secondary.
Where else does it matter that something is a LCF, other than with regard to a LCFD. The new law uses LCF language to limit the use of LCFDs. If there are no other places that reference a LCF, then the meaning of it really doesn't matter.The end result is that "large capacity firearm" basically has no meaning
YesIs it illegal to leave a standard capacity magazine (unloaded) unsecured somewhere?

It would be litering to not pick up any standard mags someone else leaves aroundThe question behind the question was whether you can just abandon a standard capacity magazine somewhere that happens to be in the same area where somebody who happens to want a standard cap mag is hanging around. Maybe that person had coincidentally also recently compensated you for your thoughts on Maura Healey (for example).
