Here we go. Just introduced by an ultra progressive Democrat in Albuquerque. Last year HB 156 was tabled and it limited rounds to 15. New bill limits rounds to <10. The proposed bill can be found here:
Just one of many to be introduced this legislative session. The other thing to notice is the narrative of guns being a public health epidemic. I am sure the governor would love guns to be declared a public health menace. She then could order draconian executive orders without legislative approval. She did this for COVID and the state supreme court (all her appointees) backed her up.

That's all we need right now- more of this BS from our dumbass governor that FUCKING won reelection. The alternative was a bible thumping former weather guy, but I would have taken him in a heartbeat.

Uugh. I hope the Bruen case starts to sweep this shit out of the legal system sooner rather than later.

If you live in New Mexico, you need to write to your state representative and state senator and tell them you object to HB 50, HB9, HB 72, HB 100, and HB 101. You can find your legislator at: https://www.nmlegis.gov/members/find_my_legislator
I've contacted all of my friends, even the ones who don't shoot and they're all contacting their legislators to voice their opposition to these bills.
It's over 9 that's illegal. not over 10. So 10 rd mags would be illegal.
See this from the link provided.
