Democrat Lawmakers Announce Gun Control Bill Banning Magazines Holding More Than 10 Rounds
Top gun rights group says magazine ban is obsolete
Several Democrat members of Congress introduced a gun control bill that would ban magazines holding more than 10 rounds, meaning that the sale, manufacturing, transfer, possession, or importation of such magazines would be prohibited by the federal government.
Several states including New York and California have previously imposed bans on magazines that hold more than 10 rounds. Magazines that held more than 10 rounds were banned under the Federal Assault Weapons Ban of 1994, which expired 10 years later in 2004.
On Wednesday, Sen. Bob Menendez (D-N.J.) as well as Reps. Diana DeGette (D-Colo.), Dina Titus (D-Nev.), and Ted Deutch (D-Fla.) introduced the bill (pdf), known as the “Keep Americans Safe Act.”

I think it’s time for Connecticut to do this on a very regulated basis otherwise I don’t want to also surrender it to the underground market which is really dangerous, Lamont said.
