If they come that deep you’re dead.And you can keep what you have we just aren’t making them anymore.Also...most revolvers hold 6 bullets....this now scoops them up......it would also end concealed carry, since almost all of the compact and sub compact guns hold more than 5 bullets........
this is a back door gun ban...and it needs to be stopped.....
This is exactly what the Judge in California pointed out when he put a stay on the California magazine ban...

(n) a slippery slope
What is clear from the preliminary evidence presented is that individuals who intend to engage in mass gun violence typically make plans. They use multiple weapons and come loaded with extra ammunition.
They pick the place and the time and do much harm before police can intervene. Persons with violent intentions have used large capacity magazines, machine guns, hand grenades and pipe bombs, notwithstanding laws criminalizing their possession or use.
Trying to legislatively outlaw the commonly possessed weapon de jour is like wearing flip flops on a slippery slope.
A downhill slide is not hard to foresee.
Tragically, when 30-round magazines are banned, attackers will use 15 or 17- round magazines.
If magazines holding more than 10 rounds are banned they will use multiple 10-round magazines.
If all semi-automatic weapons are banned they will use shotguns and revolvers.
All of these scenarios already occur.
Because revolvers and handguns are the quintessential home defense weapon protected by the Second Amendment and specifically approved in Heller, and because the average defensive gun use involves firing 2.2 rounds (according to the State’s experts), states could rationalize a ban on possession of rounds in excess of three per weapon.
Criminals intent on 13 violence would then equip themselves with multiple weapons.
The State could then rationalize a one-weapon-per-individual law.
Since “merely” brandishing a firearm is usually effective as a defense to criminal attack (according to the State’s experts), it could be argued that a one-revolver-with-one-round-per-individual ban is a reasonable experiment in state police power as a means to protect citizens and law enforcement officers from gun violence.
Statutes disarming law-abiding responsible citizen gun owners reflect an opinion on gun policy.
Courts are not free to impose their own policy choices on sovereign states.
But as Heller explains, the Second Amendment takes certain policy choices and removes them beyond the realm of debate. Disarming California’s law-abiding citizenry is not a constitutionally-permissible policy choice.
Because when 6 blacks home invade you, all you need is 5 bullets, amirite? Sorry, I was just watching this documentary about a home invasion gang in Detroit. Not only did they come 6 deep, they had automatic weapons ..machine guns and body armor.
Outlawing the good weapons for citizens doesn't stop criminals from getting them.
And you are wrong because most criminals find these weapons and steal them from your homes. If we don’t sell you ten round clips then criminals won’t get their hands on your shit.
These idjits think their arguments are original. Actually, these same arguments were done in 1933 and 1934 over the Thompson SMG. This is why that law looked so peculiar. They didn't go out and actively seek the Thompsons. They Grandfathered them in. It made it illegal to manufacture them, make replacement parts for them, sell them, trade them, bequeath them. But if you had one, you didn't have to go turn it in. But in the event of a crime, they did gather those weapons up and destroy them. Like many other Fully Auto Weapons, the Thompson required quite a bit of maintenance but without replacement parts as the broke, the became wall hangars. For awhile, the ones in the homes were prime targets for criminals to steal. But after a period of time, that supply dried up since no replacements were forthcoming. It took about 10 years before the problem was finally taken care of. And even today, that same law deals with the same problem the same way is is quite effective.
I’m sure someone said the same thing about seat belts when they were made mandatory. “What’s next?”
