from the same people who would regulate, restrict, proscribe and limit political speech and all your other rights in the Bill of Rights.
I was frankly glad to get out of there 7 yrs ago

If “banana clip” means more than 10 rounds, pls give citation and sources...near as I can tell, ten is max.
“... while concealed-carry permits have become considerably harder to come by.”
Not true in Sacramento county at least. The current sheriff changed the default from “don’t issue” to “do issue”. Not 100% because he says they still deny people who have frequent run ins with the Sheriffs Department even though they may not be banned under the law, but it’s much easier than it was under the last sheriff.
Nope, ten is the max

Call it slice-of-banana clip lol
Since it’s in Kaliphorniastan the directions must be in Vietnamese, Chinese, Japanese, Lithuanian, Polish, Russian .... but I digress.
You are correct, CA banned magazines (not “clips”) over 10 rounds, unless they were purchased prior to the ban (about 20 years ago). About that same time they passed an “Assault Weapon Ban” that listed specific models (including AKs and ARs), and allowed the DA to add copycat models, if they were capable of using “detachable magazines”. It went to court, and it was pointed out that all magazines are detachable. The state said it meant detachable without the use of a tool. So manufacturers started adding a recessed magazine release, that could be pushed with a bullet, but not a finger, aka. a “bullet button”. So now you can buy a new AR again, as long as it has one.
Lock the idiots up in a safe so they will be “safe” from the rest of us....
“I was frankly glad to get out of there 7 yrs ago”
I escaped from CA in 1979. Smartest thing I ever did in my life.
“So, what’s next...?”
Kung fu grips.
These “fringies” (people at the edge of being cognizant) are always starting bills like this ... makes great headlines and those no where. So lets start some of our own bills ... EVERY HOME MUST HAVE AT LEAST 2 LOADED GUNS AT ALL TIMES ... there’s a starter.
