That would be manufacturing a magazine in MD and thus illegal if it holds over 20 rounds.
When you state dedicated 9mm lower, are you talking for an AR platform?
Not to sound like an ass, but make sure you drive over the state line before you do it.

Let's put it this way...
You can disassemble them...
You can modify parts...
You cannot put them back together or manufacture a magazine unless you are outside of the state. Read the law below, I think you would be WAY, WAY, WAY off in the gray area if you attempt to "modify" these. Since "modification" is not illegal but "manufacture" is, you would be at the mercy of some lawyer somewhere and a judge, but more than likely not a jury.
The jury would decide whether or not you manufactured a magazine, but the judge and the lawyers would define what constitutes manufacture... that's dangerous territory.
§ 4-305. Detachable magazines - Prohibited.
(a) Scope of section.- This section does not apply to a .22 caliber rifle with a tubular magazine.
(b) Prohibited.- A person may not manufacture, sell, offer for sale, purchase, receive, or transfer a detachable magazine that has a capacity of more than 20 rounds of ammunition for a firearm.
The price of being wrong?
A person who violates this subtitle is guilty of a misdemeanor and on conviction is subject to imprisonment not exceeding 3 years or a fine not exceeding $5,000 or both.
So that said, take a day trip, re-assemble, and go about your business. Just don't ever build them in MD. Remember, even if you are completely legal... The only words out of your mouth should this go south on you is... "I don't speak to the police. My lawyer is the only person who will speak to the police on my behalf." <- See you tubevideo titled, "Don't talk to the police."
