On April 12, 2024, the National Foundation for Gun Rights, the legal arm of the National Association for Gun Rights, revealed a critical piece of information that shows the Colorado state government’s magazine ban is blatantly unlawful.
The aim of NFGR’s Gates v. Polis action is to reverse the magazine restriction.
On April 12, the National Shooting Sports Foundation released a survey that showed that carrying a handgun with a capacity greater than ten rounds is commonplace across the country. Furthermore, according to the survey, there are nearly a billion magazines in use, and 74% of them can carry eleven rounds or more. Approximately 46% of magazines now in circulation have a capacity of 30 rounds or more.
Hannah Hill, Executive Director of the National Foundation for Gun Rights (NFGR), stated, “This NSSF report proves beyond a doubt, with indisputable evidence, that normal-capacity magazines are in common use and may not be banned under the 2nd Amendment and the Supreme Court’s Heller and Bruen precedents.”
The Attorney General successfully urged the federal district court judge in the Gates v. Polis case to disregard the NFGR expert witness report, which asserted widespread use of the banned magazines nationwide.
The National Association for Gun Rights’ president, Dudley Brown, stated, “This analysis confirms our argument against arbitrary and irrational magazine bans in our litigation in Colorado, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Illinois, and Hawaii.” “This study is the final straw that will put an end to magazine bans, which are unconstitutional.”
Gun Control Inc. attempts to weaken the Second Amendment in a number of ways, one of which is the ban on magazines. Gun controllers will turn to more lenient types of gun controllers are unable to obtain complete gun grabs in order to gain traction.
Electioneering, citizen lobbying, or legal action are all viable ways for gun rights activists to thwart gun grabs and keep Gun Control Inc. from gaining any more traction.
