  • Patent number: 9267749
    Abstract: A modular firearm magazine assembly that is adapted to accept a “plug” piece to restrict and reduce the number of cartridges that can be contained in a magazine housing. The assembly in one construction is comprised of a base plate retainer collar, base plate, resistance spring, and cartridge follower plate that attach to and mount inside a cartridge magazine housing. In alternative constructions, the base plate and cartridge follower plates are modified to provide plug pieces that cooperate to restrict and limit the maximum possible travel distance of the cartridge follower plate to reduce the cartridge storage capacity of the magazine and accommodate governmental regulations.
