9 MM XDM illeagal in nj

Recommended Posts

Quick question,

 

I was just down at Shore Shot and asked about renting a 9 MM XDM the big guy behind the counter told me that the 9 XDM is illeagal in nj becaus of the magazine holding more than 15 rounds. I thought that if you got a mag for a gun like this pinned to 15 then the gun was legal can someone let me know what is right. I like the xdm in 45 and wanted to see if i liked in 9 was considering for a future purchase

 

Thanks in advance

The gun is NJ legal.

The >15 round mags, however, are not.

 

Most NJ FFLs will take the easy (read assholish) way out and not bother with the gun rather than permanently limit the mag capacity to 15 or less prior to delivering the package to the buyer.

 

Same with the XDM40, afaik (My son-in-law, a local LEO tried, but was refused as it was for personal purchase, not duty use)

thanks guys i though I was right that as long as you can get 15 rd maghs or have them pinned then the gun is legal. Oh well you live and learn the worst par tis this was after i went in bought 3 boxes of 9mm and range fee for the day plus rental of gun. cnat wait till i get my FID and can buy a gun instead of rent and go find a real range and buy normal priced ammo 28 dollars a box for 9 mm at SS

I want an xdm 5.25 in 40 but the 16 rd mags are the issue. Going to look into pinning

AS LEO, you are exemt (until you retire).

I have an XDM 3.8 compact in .40. Paul from A&A pinned my mags and I bought another pinned from him.

 

My LEO buddy liked mine so much, he went out and bought one himself. He will pin the mags prior to his retirement next yr. Right now, he does not have to.

 

Anyone is more then welcome to shoot my XDM. I LOVE IT!

Unless there is something I'm missing, that is not entirely accurate.

You can't just go buy "assault weapons" or high cap mags because you are a LEO.

A letter from my dept would be needed stating it is for duty use. Otherwise no i am not exempt

I had a similar issue trying to get an M&P 9mm Pro. It comes with a 17 round mag, and S&W refuses to ship it to NJ. So it had nothing to do with any FFL's not wanting to block the mags. I called S&W a few times to ask if it there was any way around that one, and they consistently told me there was not. I suppose I could have gotten one shipped from one of the online brokers to an FFL and then had the mags blocked, but I just went ahead and got the regular 9mm.

That's what I did for my 9L. I ordered it on line and had the dealer in Texas keep the mags and just ship the gun.

If it is his off-duty weapon he's good

I go to Shore Shot all the time, members get a discount on ammo, but I think the non-member price is more like $20. I never paid that much even before I joined.
