    Third Circuit appeals court upholds New Jersey's magazine confiscation law. Untold numbers of law-abiding New Jersey residents will now either be forced to turn in their legally-purchased magazines or become felons.https://twitter.com/NewJerseyOAG/status/1070400249351548930 …

    This just in: for months, individuals have been challenging NJ’s limits on large capacity magazines—a sensible law to address mass shootings. Today, the court of appeals upheld the law. Big win for public safety and law enforcement safety! pic.twitter.com/xjc5B0x9H5

        Like most gun control of this kind, it's less likely police will go door to door to enforce the confiscation law and more likely it will be disproportionately used as a tack on charge to extend sentences of inner-city minorities brought up on other charges.

        Still, if you posses a magazine capable of holding more than 10 rounds in New Jersey after Monday, you're committing a felony. Even if you legally purchased it in New Jersey on Sunday. There's no grandfathering. It's straight up confiscation.

        Lots of people in my mentions would like to see SCOTUS take this case up. That's always a possibility. However, they've been reluctant to take 2nd Amendment cases in the decade after Heller.

        Only 4 justices need to agree to hear a case but even after Kavanaugh was seated they denied cert to a gun rights case earlier this year. Plus, generally, SCOTUS waits to weigh in until there's disagreement in the lower courts. Not sure if there is yet on magazine confiscation.

        But that's more or less because New Jersey and California are the only states to go for a full confiscation scheme when regulating ammunition magazines. So, there isn't a ton of litigation out there on it.

        Republicans love states rights until it’s something they disagree with. Things are legal today that won’t be in the future and vice versa stop acting shocked. They were selling supplements in GNC not long ago that are now illegal. Stop crying.

        Exactly. NJ can do what CA did and make a list of “acceptable” guns and ban all the rest. In the end the only “acceptable” gun will be single-shot .22 rifles that are registered and stored dismantled in a safe unless being used at a licenced range...like the UK.

        NJ residents made their own bed. They have no one to blame for losing their 2A rights than themselves. They’ve routinely elected a leftist legislature who have pretty much stripped them of their rights. Try buying a firearm. Good luck. Carrying? Forget it.

        They won’t be going door-to-door to search & confiscate. Against our rights. They will just prevent public transfer & cops will bust the non compliant they “happen” to stop for whatever reason(s).

        I just realized something. Wouldn’t making all owners of these devices before the law took effect but make them felons after the fact violate ex post facto?

        Yes. They have options though. Turn them in. Send them out of state. Destroy them. Modify them to only accept 10 rounds which requires purchasing a new follower and/or spring depending on the mag. Of course, people could go the civil disobedience route & risk a felony.

        I should say imo that would be a yes from me. You’re forcing a citizen who legally purchased a product to destroy, modify, transfer their mag out of state or risk a felony. Not to mention there’s no way to reliably enforce it. You can go to another state & buy a mag off the shelf

        It’s a pointless law. They had already capped magazines to 15 rounds. I haven’t seen a shred of evidence suggesting it has saved a single life or prevented a single violent incident. It solely impacts law abiding citizens.
