My point exactly. Way tiny fraction of the large capacity mags out there have ever been used for malicious purposes.

And how many bolt, lever action and pump .22 rifles are out there with tube magazines that hold 15 to 17 rounds?

I guess I’ll go to Academy this week and see if they still carry the 12 round mag for my bolt action .22 Marlin. I’ll have me a assault rifle boy howdy!! nyuk nyuk...

Don’t need it, never really wanted one...what do I need 12 rounds for? Last dozen squirrels and armadillos took one shot each. My 75 year old single shot* would actually do the job. But it sure will piss the liberals off...so if they have it in stock it’ll be in my hands next week. I might not even take it out of the package...current mag is 7 rounds, I’ve never used the 2nd shot. Ok yes I did, 4 armadillos in the yard at once...3 of them one round each, one got away before I got get a bead on the critter. Single shot would have been a bad deal.

* Springfield model 15, made 1944 - 1947.

Back in 1989, when California was proposing their AW ban, lever action rifles were also on the list to be banned. Neal Knox spilled the beans on this and got the lever action ban part removed from the bill and the bill shelved.

Then California released Pat Purdy from a mental institution, allowed him to buy guns, passing the waiting period, and then shot up the Stockton School.

The shelved bill was pulled out and passed before any opposition could be mounted against it.
