Even though these are in .40 cal, the ones I have seen are in very good condition and would be perfect for a house/car gun. $269 for a .40 cal 17 round pistol is a pretty damn good deal.
AIM surplus has some good deals on police turn ins

Yes, most will. The MD FFL will either pin them, replace with 10 rounds, or keep the mags.

You mean standard capactiy mags? The 10-round mags are low capactiy magazines.
Yes, you knew what I meant.

A $400 Gen 5 Glock 17 as a LEO turn in might be too good to pass up on.

I'll pass on the Sig 320 LEO turn in's though.
So does anybody know if AIM will ship the hi-cap mags to MD or remove them from the firearm? True, we know that the MDSP Advisory (LD-FRU-24-004) says that a Maryland FFL may receive a high cap magazine and then pin it so it has a max capacity of 10 rounds. Does AIM Surplus know this?
The AIM Surplus website says they will remove the magazine from the shipment when they ship a firearm sold to a state (e.g. Maryland) with a magazine restriction.

You answered your own question.
Not really. I read a webpage. @teratos above said, "most will." Just trying here to find out if anyone had experience with AIM Surplus, specifically. I figure I'll go give them a call and then I'll let AIM answer my question.
Are you law enforcement? Show them proof and they will honor that exemption.
Otherwise, I doubt it.
ASK them.

Why are you so sure that they will honor it? Mighty presumptuous.
I tried getting a deal with a large company who has a whole "law enforcement" department for sales of mags and they said not at all to Maryland. Most couldn't care less about that exemption.
Called AIM. No dice- she said if they sold a firearm to me they’d remove the mag. If I bought it from a dealer who bought it from them- get this- then they’d ship the firearm w the mag. Ok, even though clearly they have to ship to a MD dealer (FFL) if it it’s sale to me? Yep. The woman I spoke with said, “It’s company policy.”

These mag questions have been answered before. If you buy from a Virginia FFL that will then forward the gun to an MD FFL you can go to VA and pickup the mags. You will still have to wait 7 days to pick up gun at md ffl.
For glock mags you will end up paying more in transfer fees than the mags, so not really worth it.

OP was about AIM surplus’ LEO firearm, a P320 in .40 SW. AIM continues to advertise a host of LEO turn in pistols at good prices.
I’m not going to take a road trip to Ohio where AIM has their storefront to pick up a SIG mag.
Just trying to figure how good a deal it is to buy a LEO turn in SIG at AIM if you add shipping, add FFL transfer, add cost of a couple SIG mags (that you didn’t get w the purchase). $IG mags cost a bit more than Glock.
I like AIM, but their policy is annoying.
