It SHOULD NOT be this much of a hassle to buy a friggin' standard capacity (30rd) magazine.

But it is California.

It is somewhat of a victory for now though.

Well, that was fun while it lasted...

Palmetto State Armory, Magpul, and other vendors were shipping as much freedom as possible into California this week.

The judge's stay of his ruling carved out an exception for those persons who bought between his ruling date of March 29th, up to 5 PM today.

Palmetto State Armory has a giant banner on their website right now that says "Last Call for California." They will stop accepting orders from California residents at 6 PM Eastern, 3 PM Pacific.

If you're in California, order NOW!

It is my expectation that the 9th Circus will reverse Judge Binitez in part, specifically the part that finds the magazine ban unconstitutional in its entirety, and uphold Judge Binitez in part, specifically the part that outlawed grandfathered magazines.

That would leave California the way it was before Prop 63 was passed.

Many have pointed out this likely means previously ordered mags that arrive after the Friday deadline are illegal.

Ther are, literally, millions of standard capacity magazines that were ordered before the stay, that will arrive after today at 5pm. Tens, or even hundreds thousands of new felons!

If the imminent “boating accidents” were legit there would be enough magazines down there to elevate Lake Shasta at least five feet!

Letter in a CA paper:
High-capacity magazines

EDITOR: San Diego-based U.S. District Court Judge Roger Benitez cited home invasions where a woman used the extra bullets in her weapon to kill an attacker, while in two other cases women without additional ammunition ran out of bullets, to ensure that high-capacity gun magazines remain legal in California (“Judge blocks ban on high-capacity ammo,” Saturday).

Benitez said that “individual liberty and freedom are not out-coded concepts” as he declared unconstitutional the law that would have banned possessing any ammunition magazine holding more than 10 rounds.

I don’t mean to belittle the women used in the judge’s scenario, because I can imagine that their experiences were quite traumatic, but this is a specious argument to justify gun owners’ automatically having more ammunition in their protect-my-home gun. If you, under duress, can’t shoot an intruder with the 10-round magazine you’re allowed now, how am I to believe that you, still under duress, can do it with a larger magazine?

Perhaps all the gun owners who are put off by the high-capacity magazine ban would well serve themselves to learn how to use their guns in high-pressure situations, thereby increasing the odds that they will shoot an intruder within the 10-bullet limit suggested.

If you haven't read the court decision by Judge Benitez you must put it on your reading list, it reads like a thriller as he makes point after point building up to the final decision.

The final sentences prior to expressing the court order:

"This decision is a freedom calculus decided long ago by Colonists who cherished individual freedom more than the subservient security of a British ruler. The freedom they fought for was not free of cost then, and it is not free now."

The opening line:

"Individual liberty and freedom are not outmoded concepts."

Print up 10,000 broadsheets that state: We don’t recognize the authority of the fascists in Sacramento. Nail the sheets on trees and tape them on lampposts. Sign it: Free and Armed Citizens of the State of Jefferson.

I’m surprised no one has shown a PMag D-60 box. The printing looks like someone giving the “finger” to California.

If a rebellion began in Kalifornia, who would they ask for help to put it down ? Mexico obviously.
