A federal judge has struck down a California law banning gun magazines that hold more than 10 rounds. U.S.

California cannot ban gun owners from having detachable magazines that hold more than 10 rounds, a federal judge ruled Friday.

The decision from U.S. District Judge Roger Benitez won’t take effect immediately. California Attorney General Rob Bonta, a Democrat, has already filed a notice to appeal the ruling. The ban is likely to remain in effect while the case is still pending.

This is the second time Benitez has struck down California’s law banning certain types of magazines. The first time he struck it down — way back in 2017 — an appeals court ended up reversing his decision.

    I would like to make you aware of the fact that with very little practice it takes around 1 second to change a magazine, and you can carry as many as you want.

    It’s like banning bump stocks. You can get the same effect with a pencil, so it’s just a theatrical ban instead of something that actually helps.

    This is all ignoring the fact that someone who is willing to commit mass murder is highly unlikely to care that extended magazines are illegal.

      My eyes glazed over after the 1 second thing bullshit. Im guessing youve been daydreaming of committing some mass murder. I dont want you to have a gun.
