I've seen Arms Unlimitted and PrepperGunStore state they are now shipping to us.

The one caveat that I can think of is this: the AWB still states that a fixed magazine centerfire weapon with a capacity of 11 or more is an assault weapon. Logic leads me to believe this ruling won't change that particular avenue of restriction...

So for us CA, I wouldn't be putting those standard cap mags in a fixed mag rifle, but I would put it in a featureless rifle.

Either way, buy this weekend before there is even the chance of an injunction on Monday. The timing of this release was awesome.


Yes, the ruling makes PC 32310 unconstitutional, and that includes the acquisition of standard cap mags. The ruling also requires CA A.G. Xavier Becerra to notify all LE personnel of this order.

Happy for the folks in my former state. AWB is still in effect, thumperfbc is right,. The big unknown is what happens next week with the 9th Circus.

I need to borrow a boat and scuba gear. Need to return to the lake where I lost my entire gun collection and see if my standard cap mags are still usable. Wink

I'm thinking it's only the grandfathered standard cap mags are legal. Those were made illegal by this law.

Ya that seems to be the consensus on CG. I went featureless for the standard mag release, now hopefully I get to enjoy standard AR mags too. I didn't buy any drums, though...

Today is a great day. I believe Arms Unlimited has what you seek.

Wait. So one can now buy, possess, carry and use standard mags now? Statewide? At least for pistols?

Aw some of the shops are starting to back out until further notice. Supposedly some will still ship, some will not. I have couple orders with a couple vendors for the same things, see what shows up.

I'll be real surprised if they push it to the 9th, which would ultimately end up in front of the SCOTUS if they reversed it. That's a huge gamble for other ban states that I'm not sure the commies are willing to risk given the current make-up of the SCOTUS.

PSA has been kind of strange. They outright block PMags and I just tried the daily deal D&H ones and they are blocked. Some people said their pistol mag orders went through, and some other standard cap AR mags worked. Couple people on CG said customer service at PSA and Buds and some other places have basically said they'll let the orders pend until further information next week. Preppers said they cancelled all orders. I just put an order in at RTG and it went through. It will be an interesting week ahead.

ATTENTION SIG FORUM LAWYERS!!!

What's your opinion as to how this affects or impacts other states? Can the "case law" of this case be applied to Colorado (for example) or NY?

It's going to be interesting, that's for sure. I'm just glad to see the commies get kicked right square in the balls front hole every once in a while!

If they don't appeal it, they have to abide by it permanently. They're not going to want to do that. They also likely think they'll get a friendlier reception in the 9th Circuit.
