jschweg Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 I live in NY, where we are limited to 10 round mags. I've been shooting in various winter PPC leagues for a handful of seasons, and I'm going to start with USPSA this coming spring. How do the limited classes work in my fascist state and other like it? Is there just simply a limited 10 class and nothing else? Since having a 2011 is primarily for the round count, does everyone just shoot 1911's with 10 round 40 mags for major? It would just be wierd to see a 2011 with a 10 round mag and I'm just wondering what the typical setup for limited would be. Thanks!

f2benny Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 Stick to production ss or l10 or get a wheel gun. Those are the legal choices or you can ride dirty and have fun with the 2011 s intended. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G930V using TapatalkYes, I've already decided that I'm going to shoot SS, but I was more wondering how limited even works in states like these.Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f2benny Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 Lots of folks take chances to play the game they want to or there's a bunch of preban 2011 mags around. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSteel Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 I have seen people who run a 2011 platform with 10rnd mags as L10 because the mag changes are much easier. If you want to you can still run limited with the 10 rounders but you'll be doing more mag changes.. If you want to be classified in limited that would be the N.Y. Compliant way to do it. In a classifier there will be little to no impact using a 10rnd cap. Magazine in most cases.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk For instance in NJ you can shoot open but have to have 15 round mags and NY 10 but you are not limited to a division, everyone at your match will have the same mag restriction so there is no handicap.

Mcfoto Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Subscribed. Live in Oregon which is so far, a free state (no thanks Kate Brownstain). We are considering snowbirding to Comiefornia (happy wife, happy life). Considering a SS minor option (Springfield 9mm 1911?) for a winter fun.

Jay63 Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Two years ago a shooter from California was in town for about a month. He used 10 round mags and shot limited. He was very competitive and good. Sectionals around here draw a bunch of Canadian shooters. They have friends this side of the boarder who hold there high capacity mags for them. Going back they drop off those mags and use 10 rounders in Canada. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chili Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Myself and most of the Canadians I know that head south simply use a rivet in the mag to disable full capacity and then drill it out while stateside and re-rivet before the return home.

warpspeed Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 In California, the vast majority just ignore the law and shoot hicaps in both Limited and Open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hi-Power Jack Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 I lived in NY until three years ago, and used to shoot at five different USPSA matches at different ranges, on occasion. When the new 10-round mag law came in, I received notice from two different ranges that any mag that held more than 10 rounds was NOT welcome at the range. Don't know if that has changed in the past three years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blaster113 Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 I unfortunately reside in the Democratic People's Republic Of Hawaii. We have a 10 round pistol mag law, so for USPSA we do L10, Open-10, Production, Singlestack, etc. Its a felony to insert a loaded hi-cap mag into a handgun here, but of course the criminals here don't bother with such trivial concerns.

bockerSV Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 What part of NY are you living? In the Rochester area, we have a lot of heat in Limited-10 and, believe it or not, Open-10. We have several master class guys and a few GM's at every monthly match, pretty good shooting community. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, there is a stay in CA on high cap mag law so pre-ban >10 rounders are legal. You just can't buy them. Per USPSA rules if that stay is lifted then no one would be able to use high caps in sanctioned matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tyman1876 Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 I shoot CO and Open in NY. Everyone just shoots 10rd mags so the playing field is level no matter what division you’re shooting. As stated above very rarely are classifiers effected by a 10rd mag limits. I don’t think a NY club would pick to shoot one that would be effected anyway. I just keep my standard cap mags out of state so when I travel to shoot I can actually be competitive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Postal Bob Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Here on L.I. NY, we shoot all divisions, just with 10 rd mags. And if we want to shoot higher capacity, we go to NJ or PA to shoot a match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeing that there is no serial number or manufacturing date on mags the law really is not enforceable. If and when the 9th circuit lifts the stay then there will be no loophole (and hopefully my move to Lake Travis, TX will be complete then ).

tattooo Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 That is true, how do they know if a mag is pre ban or not ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brix Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 In California, the vast majority just ignore the law and shoot hicaps in both Limited and Open. Very true, clubs won't enforce the current law since there is an injunction for ”grandfathered" standard cap mags in place currently, but mainly because screw Sacramento.Lots of PCC competitors with Glock fun sticks with mag extensions.Sent from my BTV-W09 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Postal Bob Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 In NY, there is no such thing anymore as "pre-ban" mags under the law. You either have legal mags, 10 rounds or less, or illegal mags over 10 round capacity. The only exception is for LEO's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
