New, ban-expired glock mags have no manufacture date on them. Go to a gunshow in a neighboring state, stick one in your luggage and go back home! Just don't get one stamped for "LEO". Those were made between 1994 and 2004.
Be wary of this advice. I was at a shop in NY recently where a LEO was picking up a new Glock. It appears the pre ban Glock mags were not metal lined. When full they would "swell" and prevent them from dropping clear when the mag release was pressed. New mags have a metal inner sleeve I believe. This prevents the swelling and allows a full or partially full mag to drop free when the release is pressed. By checking to see if the inner sleave is present the NY authorities could easily determine if it is a pre or post ban magazine.

God, I hate this state. Luckily I have an interview in Northern VA on Monday! Free at last, thank God we're free at last!
