New Jersey citizens who possess firearm magazines capable of holding more than 10 rounds of ammunition will be violating state law starting Tuesday.

In June, Gov. Phil Murphy signed a “high capacity” magazine ban that mandates anyone in possession of 10+ round magazines is required to surrender them, transfer them to someone who is licensed to possess them, or modify the magazines to limit their capacity to just 10 rounds, The Washington Free Beacon reported Saturday.

The 180-day deadline set by the law expires Tuesday at midnight, meaning anyone who failed to get rid of their “high capacity” magazines will be violating the law.

Anyone caught in possession of this now-illegal item is subject to arrest and prosecution, and may face up to 18 months imprisonment and fines of up to $10,000.
