30 round magazines or high cap magazines hand guns?

**rocafella1978** · May 4th, 2014, 02:35 PM

Dear all, I am still new to the US and to PA, and have many questions.
1) are 30 round magazines legal in PA for rifles? (AR10/AR15/ AK and etc platforms?)
2) are high cap magazines with +++ extension on hand gun magazines legal in PA? (12 round? 15 round? 17round? 20round? 30 round?) on pistols?

many thanks to you all for your help and assistance.

ANY round capacity magazine or drum is not prohibited in PA.

thank you all for the quick answers, now the stupid question what is legal?

1) RIFLES - 10 round? 20 round?

2) PISTOL/ HAND GUNS - 10 round? 15 round?

or doesn't matter what weapon, all limited legal magazines are 10 round?

thanks for clarifications in advance and explanations.

also: if I purchase example: Glock 19, comes standard with 15 round mag, so in PA will get Glock 19 with 10 round mag? or how does it exactly work.

For Pa ALL magazines are legal regardless of the # of rounds or the firearm in which they are used. Once you go outside Pa, the state laws of the occupied jurisdiction would prevail.
