There’s No Second Amendment Right to Large-Capacity Magazines

The man who fatally shot nearly two dozen people at an El Paso Walmart on Saturday, alleged to be a right-wing extremist, and the man who shot and killed nine people only hours later in a downtown area of Dayton, Ohio, both unleashed their savage attacks thanks to military-style rifles. Just as culpable for the carnage, however, were the large-capacity magazines that enabled these shooters to discharge many rounds of ammunition without reloading.

What utter BS.

In U.S. v. Miller, the Court assumed arguendo that the defendant had an individual right to bear arms. It ignored the gov'ts argument that the 2A only guaranteed a collective right and went straight to type of weapon at issue. In doing so, it set the criteria for what arms are "protected" - in common use, had militia utility, could contribute to the common defense or were "any part of the ordinary military equipment." [That includes critical design parts, such as magazines.] It ruled that Miller's shotgun was not protected, and it closed with the dictat that the 2A must be applied using the criteria it had set forth.

In WW2 the main battle weapon was the M1 Garand, fed by an en bloc clip (and that is the correct term here) containing 8 .30 '06 rounds, and Patton said it was the best weapon in the war.
It's been demonstrated that it is possible to reload mag-fed weapons so quickly it won't matter if they're 10 round, 20, or 50 round mags.
The Marjorie Tone man H. S. In Parkland Florida was attacked in 2018 by a thug using 10 rnd. mags. Was the death count there acceptable?
NO!!!!!
Let's get past this stupidity; mag capacity bans are useless aND DUMB!!!!

 QUOTES TO REMEMBER
The Brady Bill's only effect will be to desensitize the public to regulation of weapons in preparation for their ultimate confiscation. — Charles Krauthammer, The Washington Post, April 5, 1996
