NJ criminalizes 10+ round high capacity magazines today

[The Purge]

Well you asses from N.J. voted that Commie Murphy in as Gov....you got what you voted for...after guns, your 1st Amendment is on the block when you don't agree with this rat bastar!


President Obama and President Trump were both right, Obama when he told us elections have consequences and Trump in his 2018 stump speech that a consequence of Democrat victories would be renewed attacks on the Second Amendment. New Jersey’s ban on high-capacity magazines has been upheld by a federal court, opening the door to door knock gun confiscation and making off-duty police officers subject to criminal prosecution. The inmates are officially running the asylum.


The law, signed by Gov. Phil Murphy in June along with five other new gun laws, gave New Jersey gun owners who currently possess the magazines in question 180 days to either surrender them, permanently modify them to only accept up to 10 rounds, or transfer them to somebody who is allowed to legally own them. The deadline is set to expire on Monday.


A lawsuit brought by the Association of New Jersey Rifle and Pistol Clubs and supported by the National Rifle Association failed on Thursday as the 3rd Circuit Court of Appeals declared the confiscation law constitutional. Any civilian caught in possession of a magazine capable of holding more than 10 rounds may be arrested and prosecuted. Possession of such magazines after the deadline will be considered a crime of the fourth degree under state law and carry up to 18 months in prison and up to $10,000 in fines or both.


Nearly all modern full-size or compact handguns and rifles sold in the United States come standard with magazines capable of holding more than 10 rounds of ammunition…


Judge Patty Shwartz, an Obama appointee, wrote for the majority that the law serves a legitimate public safety purpose…

[The Purge]

From what I read on social media. Nobody in NJ is turning in mags. They are laughing and mocking the governor on the internet forums. 89 cops in one of the police depts said they aren’t giving up their mags so arrest them and figure out who’s going to patrol while they are in jail. It’s an uenforceable law just like the Connecticut assault rifle registration law.

Neither are bullets which are next to be confiscated!

If you decide not to turn in your illegal magazines.....hide them

Just don’t try to use one at a shooting range, don’t try to sell one, dont get caught with them in your car, don’t try to use it

Has the same effect

 

[SassyIrishLass]

I read gun owners had until Dec 11th to get rid of them and a state police spokesman said none had been surrendered and they had no concrete plan to enforce the law

Basically NJ gun owners said fuck you

To be fair, why would anyone want to live in New Jersey?

So who won?

You have large capacity magazines you cannot use and can’t sell them, can’t risk getting caught with them

Yes

If you have them, you will be prosecuted
If a criminal has them, he will be prosecuted

What the court found:

"Today we address whether one of New Jersey’s responses to the rise in active and mass shooting incidents in the United States—a law that limits the amount of ammunition that may be held in a single firearm magazine to no more than ten rounds—violates the Second Amendment, the Fifth Amendment’s Takings Clause, and the Fourteenth Amendment’s Equal Protection Clause. We conclude that it does not. New Jersey’s law reasonably fits the State’s interest in public safety and does not unconstitutionally burden the Second Amendment’s right to self-defense in the home. The law also does not violate the Fifth Amendment’s Takings Clause because it does not require gun owners to surrender their magazines but instead allows them to retain modified magazines or register firearms that have magazines that cannot be modified. Finally, because retired law enforcement officers have training and experience that makes them different from ordinary citizens, the law’s exemption that permits them to possess magazines that can hold more than ten rounds does not violate the Fourteenth Amendment’s Equal Protection Clause. We will therefore affirm the District Court’s order denying Plaintiffs’ motion to preliminarily enjoin enforcement of the law. "....

Bravo to the Court. It is about time they limit gun magazines. Putting the public safety first and not gun lunatics. These are very reasonable laws except to the crazed fringe.

I checked. Firearms are still legal in New Jersey. Unhinged apoplectic posters on this forum do not alter that.

N.J.'s ban on large magazines is constitutional, court rules. Gun groups vow to appeal.
