Gray area.... Technically it might be legal. There is NOTHING in the law that prohibits the transfer of magazine parts, but when you transfer all the parts disassembled it could be argued that you transferred a high capacity magazine, because disassembled it is still that same article.

If you had a jury of your peers, do you think they (in the state of MD) would have the sophistication to understand the difference between an assembled magazine and an unassembled one? Or would they believe that as the prosecutor would argue that you were trying to break the law through a non-existent loop hole and that you should be convicted of breaking the law as written despite your cute little stunt of disassembling the magazine first?

I WOULD NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, TRANSFER A HIGH CAPACITY MAGAZINE IN THE STATE OF MARYLAND. While it may not be illegal to transfer parts, you would be much more protected by driving across state lines and doing the transfer there. I AM NOT A LAWYER, THIS IS NOT LEGAL ADVICE. This is my personal opinion.

Mark, I agree.

If I buy anything that holds more than 20 rounds, I can prove it was bought outside MD. MSP would have to create a conspiracy to try to say I bought something in state or assembled it in state.

I am pretty sure you are not allowed to manufacture 20+rnd devices in MD either

Whoever bought it would have to go out of state to reassemble it
