Fed court strikes down Ca 10 round limit

[sota]

if the case in the 9th makes it way to SCOTUS, AND it's found in the same favor as Benitez did in his opinion (aka, his language is upheld with no changes,) then NJ's bans are destroyed as well.

I feel like i should be a little miffed at companies either raising prices slightly or pulling long standard "discounts" on PMAGs when that 3/29 order dropped like hiroshima.

On the other hand, I hope the Cali people cleared out every goddamn warehouse of those things, and that Magpul has a 10 year backlog on production now.

So, what is something worth?
Whatever someone will pay for it.

If the 9th affirms Benitez En Banc, SCOTUS will most likely be in favor of Benitez almost immediately since the 9th En Bank is the whole 9th circuit, where as the NJ decision was just a 3 Judge panel that never made it to the full 3rd Circuit.

If all the chips fall how, and where we want them, the moment news gets out, magazine companies will be overnight multi-millionaires. Lets just hope prices don't skyrocket. But your talking CA, HI, CO, IL, NJ, NY, MD, CT, MA, D.C, and VT. CO, VT, and, CT won't be as significant since they more recently changed their laws, but they have new gun owners who I'm sure can't wait to be free.

I was 'in the dark' for the last week and getting caught up on things...I didn't read the entire thread but what I did read I didn't see any mention of PRNJ if it's there...so...what, if anything, does this mean for NJ's mag ban?

Nothing, yet; different court district. But if it stands at the 9th circuit, there will be a split ruling between circuits making it prime SCOTUS material

Is PRNJ headed to district court? If so by who's doings??

PRNJ was upheld at circuit level in Dec18, and generally died.

This was the first mag ban case that actually used the Heller test correctly, so even if the ninth overrules, there's a good chance the case will continue since it's in line with SCOTUS precedent.

iirc the 9th is the only circuit so stupidly large that an enbanc is seen by a group and not the entire panel.

When pigs fly. The last paraphrase I made of them was ''we are afraid' to set precedent.'

I never said it *would* go to SCOTUS, just that with a circuit split it becomes the type of case that SCOTUS should address. Most stuff is let to stand until there's a split.
