If you ban plastic, someone will figure out a way to do it with metal. Besides, the only way a plastic magazine would be undetectable is if it were empty, which make it effectively useless anyhow.

Even then, plastic magazines (such as those for Glocks, "Pmags" for AR-15s, any many others) still have metal components, most notably the spring.
