It will be interesting to see where this one goes too


It would be nice to see larger capacity magazines protected at a federal level. California has already stated they are going to appeal.

Of course they will appeal, I think it’s a great victory for gu owners and I saw where psa will start shipping large capacity to California.

New York should follow suit if it stands.

Not really sure how to read the news, but it looks like the ban is back into effect until the court has more time to evaluate. so there might still be future hope

A federal judge in California has halted the sale of high-capacity magazines in the state, just a week after he ruled that the state's ban on them was unconstitutional.


U.S. District Court Judge Roger T. Benitez, who previously served on the California Superior Court and was appointed to the Southern District of California by George W. Bush in 2004, stopped any further sales of magazines capable of holding more than 10 rounds until the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals considers the next steps.

In a win for California Attorney General Xavier Becerra, who disagreed with Benitez's initial ruling and sought the stay, California residents are prohibited from manufacturing, importing, or engaging in any kind of transaction involving the high-capacity magazines as of 5 p.m. Friday.
