Barrington Police Chief Michael Correia said about a half-dozen residents stopped into the station late last week to turn over firearm magazines that carried more than 10 rounds of ammunition, following the enactment of a new law in Rhode Island.
Chief Correia said people can turn over the magazines at the department — police will hold the items and if the law is overturned or changed, residents can return and pick up the magazines.
