Judge blocks California's high-capacity magazine ban
Too bad the 2nd Circuit didn't feel the same about New York.

Wow, this is huge. Preliminary injunctions are only given when the judge feels there's a pretty good chance they'll win at trial. That said, we all know the en banc hearing (assuming it gets that far) will just overturn it.
Judge blocks CA ban on magazines with more than 10 bullets
FUAC you pos. Where are the east coast patriot judges ?

So the next game after the loss will be "Government compensation of confiscated magazines" they'll give $5 to you for each magazine that holds more than 10 and they'll pass the new law..this is California people...
This is great news; not just for the West Coast. This can possibly be a turn around for other laws as well. New York residents can and will use this as guide to fight our horrible laws.
We just need an organization or a group of people in NY that are actually Pro-2A.

High capacity? You mean standard capacity you ass wipes. I hate the term "high capacity."

Doesn't a circuit split on a fundamental right necessitate a SCOTUS ruling? It would seem this is a clear legal divide that requires clarification.

Where do they come up with these arbitrary mag. cap. limits.
NY ass-holes tried 7 rounds. That number was ruled against in court. So 10rd is still ok? Why, why not 12 or 15 or how about 20rd (the original cap. of the AR-15).
rhetorical question- If 10rds (in there gun-grabber's retarded minds) is safer than 20 or 30rd, isn't 5rds safer than 10 ?
Regarding mags for Semi-auto rifles
They can argue that a 50 or 100rd drum is unusual - fine. But 20rd Magazines are the universal standard.

Its supposed to, but SCOTUS doesnt have to take anything that less than 4 justices want to hear.
We already have circuit splits that they've declined to rule on.
This is something that many of us were asking during the passage of SAFE Act. I can understand passing laws that make sense, but a Magazine restriction has no sense involved.
I can change mags and shoot the rounds faster than most can shoot using one larger mag.
Magazine changing has become a competitive sport around here, and people are getting really good at it.
Absolutely, if these politicans were to actually see how fast it can be done, they would limit us too one round loaded at a time!

Anyone who talks about mag cap restrictions slowing down a shooter, or autos being a "hail of bullets" needs to check out a Jerry Miculek video, and remind them that is a 6 shot revolver.
Be interesting to see what he could do with a pair of cap and ball revolvers.

Be careful what you wish for. Be very careful.
We need a few more resignations/expirations before any new rulings in our favor would be quantifiable.
You need to be reminded every now and then that it's not just for the looks. Somebody like me- my ar's are not my goto hd weapons. I hate the thorsden stock, and I refuse to spend all the extra money to keep them featureless just to try and please king Andy. This is why I started the T-nut thread at the other forum. Stick it up Cuomos ass for two dollars. When the time comes that I NEED to have detachable mags for the ar, I'll take the 20 seconds to put the standard one back in.Unless you fix your magazine like most like around here for looks.

I actually only know one guy with a detachable 10 rounders. Most have 30 rounds but still change them very quickly.Unless you fix your magazine like most like around here for looks.
And no, they arent cops.....just rednecks!! HeeHaw!!

Yes, but stocks, spurs, non threaded barrels - they are going to cost you. I'd just assume spend a bit more and buy a mini-14.

Exactly! And as a bonus the mini14 handles far better than the abortion resulting from a thorsden AR. Much prefer the mini14 to that abomination any day.

Temporary victory.
His ruling will be overturned and they'll return back to a 10 round limit by the end of the year.
Since 1994, firearms of all designs were being offered in capacity restricted States with 10 round magazines. Like it or not, 10 round magazines are "an accepted industry standard" and that will be the basis for upholding any ban.
The day an AR15, a Glock, M&P, Sig, Ruger, or CZ shipped from the factory with a 10 round only magazine was the day we we're stuck with 10 round only magazines.
Now....if we're talking about compensation for banned items that have to be turned in, enjoy your waiting for what will be most likely a "bad check" from the State of California worth just about nothing.

This presents a glimmer of hope. I like the approach.
Make commonly used items contraband without monetary relief.
They couldn't even ban Marijuana back in the 30's they created the Marijuana Tax Stamp.
Besides, since Obama and his communist progressives the rule of law is shot.
The liberal circuits don't care what the Supreme Court says anyway. They consistently ignore Heller and McDonald. So if they can ignore the Supreme Court, I can ignore Cuomo's illegal laws too right?

Are they ignoring the Supreme Court if Clarence Thomas openly says that they don't believe in the second amendment?
The fight that many people are fighting to restore some of this States' lost Rights.
There are more than 125 lawsuits pending between NY State and the Federal Courts.
Many are actually trying to do something!
