A federal judge in California on Friday declared that state's ban on magazines that hold more than 10 rounds of ammunition unconstitutional, saying it violated the Second Amendment rights of firearms owners.

Update it has been appealed by AG Bonta to an enbanc panel. It doesn’t appear that there will be another freedom week scenario.

    Of note, the same judge is expected to issue rulings on the constitutionality of CA’s handgun roster and their ban on firearms they recognize as assault weapons.

      And to be a bit of a devil’s advocate here, the handgun roster really is bullshit. One modern handgun is really much the same as any other, so if we’re going to allow handguns at all it’s just looney tunes to arbitrarily make some legal and others illegal.
