If limiting to 7 rounds is unconstitutional, based on handguns in common use having more, then a 10 round limit would be unconstitutional also.

How many AR’s commonly have 20+ round mags?

The Libs, and to a great extent, politicians who are more than happy with the status quo, feel they can pass anything they want, Constitution be da**ed. I’m convinced their thinking is “try and stop us”.

Of course it’s unconstutional....that’s a no brainer. ALL gun control laws
are unconstitutional. Problem is that if the law is overturned that ruling will
be appealed by the state of NY till they get a ruling in their favor. If necessary they will go to the SCOTUS and while Heller vs DC does state that 2A is an individual right it also states it can be “regulated” That statement essentially grants the government carte blanche to impose gun control.
As long as they allow citizens to own some type of weapon even if the acquisition of that weapon is extremely difficult then all is OK in the la la land of jurisprudence. The federal court system was one of the very first
institutions infiltrated and seized by the marxists. Freedom and rights will
find few friends sitting on the bench these days.

in DC v Heller they held that anything that is commonly used for lawful purposes is protected by the 2nd Amendment. They even mention the M-16 by name. Here's one write up with more details: http://common-sen.se/awb2013-unconstitutional/
