Those of you in the sunny state of California who are fortunate enough to own ARs right now should be able to get these new Magpul PMAG 10/30 AR/M4 GEN M3 magazines shipped directly to you. Despite their appearance, these magazines feature a special spring, spacer, and riveted base plate that effectively limit the otherwise 30 round magazine to just 10 rounds.

As you can see from the pictures I took, a lot of work has gone into making sure these magazines can’t be easily transformed into 30 round magazines which should satisfy the relatively stringent policies of the state of California. As with other PMAGs, the PMAG 10/30 still features the same sturdy polymer construction as standard magazines so you’ll be getting the best performance out of your specialized magazines without worrying about running afoul of asinine firearms laws in your state.
As many shooters who live in such ban states will know, these magazine capacity laws can often be convoluted and difficult to keep straight, especially when things suddenly change for a few days like in the case of California’s “freedom week” where standard 30 round magazines were made legal to purchase within the state. The PMAG 10/30 will at least give those shooters the same overall dimensions as a standard PMAG, but with a capacity that won’t get them into trouble with state laws.

For everyone saying this is stupid...sh*t rolls east guys. Talk all you want, but the entire nation may end up getting a taste of CA's gun laws...including the "high capacity" mag ban.
So, aside from the fact that you all may end up buying these for yourselves in the near future, Magpul is absolutely getting ready for the possibility that millions of other Americans may be buying 10/30's. In the end it's a business move, as simple as that; it's not an insult on your standard caps.
And no, i'm not saying that any of you will give up your 20's and 30's, no one in CA is giving up freedom week 1.0 or 2.0 mags anytime soon.
Yeah this is just Magpul's way of conforming to the Democrats so they won't loose their Government contracts
