Question on selling 30 rd. mags

[NateIU10]

This sounds like the simplest way. Why complicate things?

Of course, you will have to pay the capital gains tax just like everybody else.

Say, weren't you and I supposed to meet for lunch tomorrow in Shephardstown?

How is it cap gain?

This is what the law says:



Emphasis is mine.

Our interpretation for the purposes of the management of the forum is that it is not permissible to offer them for sale, even if the actual transaction occurs outside of the state.

with that, if you are a maryland resident, how can you purchase hi-cap out of state?
i believe this law applies within the state.

Man... Maryland just does not like firearms enthusiasts.

At least we can still have 20 rounds, and aren't limited to 10

But in the end, that's still pretty scant consolation

Because you are physically outside of the state when you purchase them.

yes but does it say "within Maryland"?

It doesn't say otherwise either, and while in most normal states that would be a clear enough indication that since it is not otherwise prohibited that it is permitted, Maryland law rarely works that way in application....especially when it comes to firearms.

The vagueness leaves too much room for interpretation and a wise person will always err on the side of caution in this state.

That's the crux of the problem.

If you are willing to be the test case, be my guest.

The forum will have no part of it, absent convincing evidence otherwise.

i agree with you here.
no more arguments from me on this.

You should have a MDS meet and greet at a restaurant/etc in shrewsbury or some other just over the border location. Bring the magazine "collection" to show off to other gun enthusiasts.
Even though they are not for sale now, once you get there you might consider selling part or all of your collection. Perhaps you could even place a per magazine value on your collection prior to the meet and greet.

Although it would be nice to meet some of the people here. I do come out of the woods every now and then. I do plan on going to the Frederick Show the 5th and 6th looking for ammo cans. Hopefully they didn't go through the roof with everything else.

You can always list 30 round parts kits.

Just announce your intention to sell them for $40 each, but don't offer them for sale and certainly do not accept any offers unless and until you are in a state where it is legally permitted.

FYI, this probably may not have to be another state. Your attorney may confirm that a an embassy driveway, diplomatic mission or consilate, or a national park are areas not subject to MD statues.

Here's a good question, if the mags are disassembled are they still considered 30rd mags?

Diplomatic Immunity

If you untie your shoes, turn around three times counterclockwise, and cross your fingers behind your back, then it's OK.

I think I have a letter from the Attorney General to prove it. I'll see if I can find it.

That looks like a good place to eat.
Apple-acian:Baked granny smith apple, brie cheese, red onion, dijon mustard on ciabatta bread.

Are there gun stores nearby?
