Well the “mid 2013” timeline Magpul gave for the 10LR magazines has come and gone, and firearms season here in Missouri starts in 3 weeks.
I have previously stated I had no interest in a lower capacity steel magazine and I didn’t really want to permanently alter a perfectly good 20LR, so it is time to “put something together”.
I DO NOT know what your local and state laws are in regards to magazine capacities and what can be done to be compliant. I have seen threads from California of rivets’ and epoxy to be compliant.
I do know, however, that in Missouri, you can only hunt with a magazine with a capacity of no more than 10. This can be done with limiters or blockers…. Think shotgun plug to limit a shotgun to three.
The limiting device I used was a piece of ˝” airline tubing, but anything you can get to stay in the recess shown should work just fine. Note how the mag spring is considerably smaller that the follower.
