WHat about the mags that I have that say Law enforcement only I guess ill have keep them someplace safe

Clearly the only workable solution would be government subsidized "Mag Buy-Backs"

I would not count on that, even if it does it will only be like $5.00 per mag. We need to stop this/

Stopping any AWB needs to be our goal. We need to make the .gov know that is the ONLY acceptable answer.

They probably wouldn't stop to check. Correct. But if you would end up using it for self defense and they check it out and it's hi cap. Do you need to show proof? None of mine show when they were made

I carry a 1911, so I'd be in the clear on this one for my carry gun... But my AK is another story.

There is no way that this hi cap magazine law can be policed. Even if you use it in a self defense situation you will be gone before the cops show up, and do you think the first thing on the cops mind will be to check out ur mag? Or just put 10 rounds in your mag .

Tell that to the many people that were caught with a larger than 10 rounds mags that went to jail and/or were then prohibited from gun ownership. This is for real!!!!

Will this ban effect on how many types of guns will be imported into the country?

Im not 100% sure, but doesnt the grade or score given to guns by the ATF have several different factors, is capacity included in the score to allow import?

You are saying if you ever use your firearm for self defense you are planning on leaving the scene before the police arrive?

Good Plan.
