You can’t actually load a semi-auto pistol with a magazine in place, or, you can’t without removing the slide and barrel. Most pistol magazines are double stack, single feed, so the bullet needs to start in front of the magazine. (I think that Steyr makes a double stack/double feed pistol magazine?) But with a magazine stuck in place, the barrel is going to be in front of the bullet, leaving you no room to load the magazine.
Or, you could weld a ten round magazine into place and go about your business as not a criminal. There’s always the choice to be responsible.
How, exactly, are you going to load a Glock that has a magazine welded into place?
Very painfully. Laws usually allow pistols to operate with removable magazines still. If they want to brick your weapon they should buy it off you.

I.e. very painfully
If you are a responsible gun owner who would only ever need a gun for self defense, then you will never need to reload.
Single use guns! No need to ever practice, we all have perfect accuracy!
Don’t give Hi Point and Taurus ideas!
So we’re now redefining 2A rights to only apply to self-defense requiring ten (10) or fewer bullets…?
