San Francisco bans, now confiscating, 10+ round magazines

[PocketProtector]

Looks like a trial run to sooner or later be expanded to all 57 States

[archer1214]

Idiotic law but, what else would you expect from the left coast!

[bogey1]

Thats what progressives do.

Not surprised. I used to live there, and while I enjoyed the restaurants, the political climate, and 2A situation was just "unsustainable". lol.

Because the gangbangers are going to turn in the magazines to their gats because of this, right?

Another feel good law by the city by the bay.


Odd city, San Fransisco. You run around buck naked, meet a man on the street, have sex with him in your bed but you best not have an Uzi parked under it.

Nobody said that you could run around amok with the Uzi, just don't get caught owning one.

Is there a definition of "ammunition components"? I could see how that might be defined only as powder, casings and bullets. But a magazine could be defined as something else.

I agree with your interpretation. There is no statutory definition.

Here's from the law



I take the bold to mean magazines.

Please expound on your definition of "ammunition component". Consider:

M-W:

component

1: a constituent part : ingredient <an important component of the program> <stereo components>

Oxford Advanced American Dictionary

component noun
/kəmˈpoʊnənt/ component pronunciation American

one of several parts of which something is made
the components of a machine
the car component industry
Key components of the government's plan are…
Trust is a vital component in any relationship.
component adjective [only before noun]
Break the problem down into its component parts.

1 Pa CS § 1903. Words and phrases.
(a) General rule.--Words and phrases shall be construed according to rules of grammar and according to their common and approved usage; but technical words and phrases and such others as have acquired a peculiar and appropriate meaning or are defined in this part, shall be construed according to such peculiar and appropriate meaning or definition.

Wouldn't the magazine be considered a component of the firearm itself, thus covered?

[Grey Bearded One]

I wonder where a chain fed firearm would fit into "mag capacity" laws? I wonder what part would be considered the "high capacity feeding device"? Would it be a single link?

During the dark days of the magazine ban, links were considered "high capacity ammunition feeding devices" and non-government folks could only own ones that pre-dated the ban.

That place, with its feel-good nature-insulting common sense-vacant left-leaning flowers-in-their-hair descendents really needs to just fall off and sink....

i bet the law makers over there doesn't even got ten rounds in their own personal flesh mags, if you know what i mean, so they're venting their frustration out onto us by passing this law - obviously, and in turn what do we do back? Mock them. No. We must love them, and show compassion for their lack of testosterone. I say we email the cali senators, and all their influences confronting them about this telling them we now know the truth, and the jig is up. California, simply cannot progress otherwise.
