Injunction granted in Prop 63 (San Diego: felons, attorney, homes)

Federal judge blocks CA ban on magazines with more than 10 bullets | abc7.com

A federal judge is blocking a California law set to go into effect Saturday that would have barred gun owners from possessing high-capacity ammunition magazines.

San Diego-based U.S. District Judge Roger Benitez said in ruling Thursday that the law banning possession of magazines containing more than 10 bullets would have made criminals of thousands of otherwise law-abiding citizens who now own the magazines.


He issued a preliminary injunction backing the legal challenge by the National Rifle Association-affiliated California Rifle & Pistol Association.

California Attorney General Xavier Becerra, who is defending the state law, did not immediately comment.


The judge says the law approved by voters in November takes away gun owners' Second Amendment rights and amounts to the government taking people's private property without compensation.

A judge with common sense in California. Very rare.

California is a lost cause, I don't know why any non liberal would live there to be honest, let them have their concrete jungle, illegals and dirty air

The only thing with this I have a problem about is how long it took to intervene.

Just waiting on leaving right now. I have to wait on some processing then I am out of here and back to NC.

That bill is a bad omen. It turns people who purchased those magazines legally into felons, and if magazines can be confiscated now what will they be able to confiscate next? pistols, semi auto rifles?

I pop into the Calguns forum from time to time, lots of members there.
They are indeed planning to send to the governors office all their magazines as an organized collective effort from hundreds of there members, created a sticky post, created a facebook page, the whole thing...

...that is, back copies of "Guns and Ammo" and other firearms oriented magazines - "Glamour", "Cosmopolitan", "Better Homes and Gardens", and any old magazines laying around...tons of them, an organized effort, straight to the governors office.

So he will get his magazines all right, maybe not the exact type he wanted.
