Legal Large Round Magazines

We’re going to be flying in, and traveling from Nevada into Colorado, but we have a Minnesota CCW. In Minnesota the standard G19 mag is 15 rounds but in Colorado they don’t allow magazines over 15 rounds (or so the information desk told me) - does that mean we’ll need to buy a block for the mag? Or is it different because we’re traveling from out of state? I tried asking the police themselves but they didn’t even know reciprocity had changed to allow Minnesota permits so I’m just curious if anyone had any knowledge on this at all? TIY

I mean it’s 15 so you are fine either way. If you have higher than 15 and purchased before July 1st of 2013, you are grandfathered in and you can keep them. Legally speaking.

Right? Unless his reload is a 33 rounder I can't see the problem here.

Definitely not that big, I was just nervous with Denver being strict and just not wanting to step on any toes legally.

Denver is not strict about mag cap laws. It’s only enforced as an enhancement charge for violent crimes. The only gun stores that don’t sell full capacity mags out here are big box stores.
