NRA & CRPA WIN: Federal Court Strikes Down California’s Gun Magazine Ban

A Magazine Ban is a Gun Ban

California – -(AmmoLand.com)- Today, a federal district court issued a decision permanently enjoining California from enforcing its restrictions on standard capacity magazines capable of holding more than 10 rounds.

This monumental victory comes in the NRA and CRPA supported lawsuit titled Duncan v. Becerra, which challenges all of California’s laws banning so-called “large-capacity” magazines.

In issuing its decision, the court notes that “[c]onstitutional rights stand through time holding fast through the ebb and flow of current controversy,” and that governments cannot turn “millions of responsible, law-abiding people trying to protect themselves into criminals” for simply exercising their Second Amendment rights.

California will no doubt appeal the decision to the Ninth Circuit. Given that Duncan is not yet final, California gun owners should still exercise caution when interacting with law enforcement. NRA and CRPA attorneys will soon update members on what exactly this ruling means for California gun owners.

More details and guidance will be provided in future NRA and CRPA information bulletins.

This is fool’s gold.. this is how they constantly demoralize gun owners.. the decision will be reversed in the ninth circuit.. and the Supreme Court will refuse to hear it.. we are like mice.. they give us cheese and we rejoice.. then we realize we’re on the sticky paper..

CA and the other blue utopias are an offense to natural law and an offense to right thinking. Fight them at every turn. The statement ‘California gun owners should still exercise caution when interacting with law enforcement’ is an understatement. It should read “Liberty loving people everywhere should always exercise caution when interacting with CA authoritarians under any circumstances.”
