I believe that the answer to that is yes. Nobody that I am aware of has yet thought to limit the number of magazines one may have in one's possession - only the number of rounds for any such magazines
I have a son in Connecticut (Navy) and there is a limit on the number of magazines you may own. He is limited to two for his AR15 and the only reason he even gets to keep the AR is because he owned it before they were banned and he was grandfathered. He had to declare the gun and the mags and register them before the new law went into effect a couple of years ago. As for pistols, 10 round limit on mags, and no more than two mags. Finding more in your home is a bad no no.

At least that is what he has told me. I haven't read their law because I haven't taken guns to where he lives.
Wow, I didn't know that some states limit the number of mags one can own. Let's just say I would not be compliant for any of my guns that take mags. I guess my shotguns, lever action and bolt guns would be OK. Revolvers as well unless they limit speed loaders. Yet another reason to be glad I live in the actual USA and not in one of the SINO's (States In Name Only).
I was wrong about this. After talking to my son, he said that he could only have two "large capacity" magazines, and those were okay because they were grandfathered when the law passed. Other than those, there is a 10 round limit, which would still make me illegal.

I don't see anything in CT law that limits the number of magazines you may own. The only restriction is that magazines over 10rds must have been owned before 4/5/13 and registered. You could buy 100 10rd AR15 magazines tomorrow in CT and be legal.
You may be right. He has told me that he cannot buy any more 30 round mags for his AR. I thought the same held true for his pistols, but that may be my sometimers kicking in. The laws went crazy there a few years ago.
