“But “high cap” mags over 10 rounds will be banned by 2012 and forever after. Count on it.”

“I think you are a bit over pessimistic. How about a friendly wager? If such a bill passes by 1 January, 2012, I will buy a case of your new book, Castigo Cay. If it doesn't, you ship me a case of autographed copies for free.

Seems like a win-win to me. We could have B4Ranch or another prominent freeper judge who wins. “

Travis responded:

“Sounds good to me. Let’s just refine the terms of the hypothetical bill.”

Marktwain replies:

I think the criteria is if future sales of magazines of more than 10 rounds are banned to citizens other than government agents after 1 January, 2010, in a bill passed by the Federal government, and signed into law. Is that what you meant?

I included all of the above for B4Ranch, and so we can refer to it in the future without going to multiple posts.

After 2012, not 2010. Future sales of new magazines. The law might not go into effect on Jan 1, but it will be passed before then.
