New Mexico House Bill 50 aims to remove large-capacity gun magazines

For more than 40 years, Mark Abramson has been selling firearms to New Mexico's gun owners. But a new proposed house bill could affect the types of guns he's sold for years.

This is a very good example of the "slippery slope".

For all the gun owners who refuse to vote enjoy. They will not stop. Should be fun when a few states follow along and no one makes a 9 round mag.

Arbitrary numbers in capacity limits should be illegal. They keep moving the numbers knowing mag manf. Don’t produce those (for the most part) common use arbitrary capacity numbered mags.

Excluding wheel guns, hunting rifles and a few others.. most common limited capacities are:
5, 6, 7, 8 and 10. I’m unaware of a 9 round mag other than perhaps a 9mm 1911?
Is this what they are basing their law off off? A 1911? One firearm type? They have no pulse on the gun market.. then again this is by design so who am I kidding.

"They" don't care that this doesn't make sense - except maybe with respect to "going one better" (literally) than the 10 round mag laws.

"They" probably don't bother to do the research to see how much this makes sense - or not. This is just political grandstanding, and if it ever makes it onto the books as a law, then so much the better.

This just goes to prove that the eventual total disarmament of law abiding citizens is truly what they want.

And some people have the gall to ask why US gun owners are so damn stubborn about gun control?

Youth today are mind numbingly programmed and naive. Hell, just stupid. The timer is ticking on the 2A going away as well as any other personal rights. Actually surprised we still have any at all after the idiocy of the last three years.

Sadly 2A is FAR from the only thing we are losing and your right. Its amazing to see how easy it has been for those who want control to persuade the fools to follow along.

Gun owners mostly vote that’s not the issue. Issue one. There are many gun owners ok with lo capcoty mags and no scary AR-15’s. Second is We as gun owners aren’t the majority. I know that’s hard to believe but it’s true. Women and young people along with old people vote the most

No honest man needs more than two rounds.

The founders didn’t intend the court system to safeguard the republic, they intended the people too.

If you let yourself get legislated into oblivion, and legally castrated of your ability to follow the constitution as intended, it will have seriously of disappointed the founding fathers.

Sigh, NO they do not. People love to pretend this is true but facts do matter. A LOT of not only gun owners but people who want freedom do NOT vote. One thing a lot of them love to spout is voting is a waste of time so no one should bother. Then they get exactly what they asked for and scream.

Not sure if it is a slippery slope so much as rampant stupidity.
