U.S.A. -(AmmoLand.com)- In February, NRA-ILA, in partnership with the California Rifle & Pistol Association, petitioned the United States Supreme Court to hear Duncan v. Bonta, a case challenging California’s ban on magazines capable of holding more than 10 rounds.
On April 1st, 23 Attorneys General filed an amicus brief supporting the case. Drafting was led by:
- Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich,
- Louisiana Attorney General Jeff Landry,
- Oklahoma Attorney General John O’Connor, and
- West Virginia Attorney General Patrick Morrisey.
Nineteen other Attorneys General joined the brief:
- Steve Marshall of Alabama,
- Treg Taylor of Alaska,
- Leslie Rutledge of Arkansas,
- Chris Carr of Georgia,
- Lawrence Wasden of Idaho,
- Todd Rokita of Indiana,
- Derek Schmidt of Kansas,
- Daniel Cameron of Kentucky,
- Lynn Fitch of Mississippi,
- Eric Schmitt of Missouri,
- Austin Knudsen of Montana,
- Doug Peterson of Nebraska,
- Dave Yost of Ohio,
- Alan Wilson of South Carolina,
- Jason Ravnsborg of South Dakota,
- Herbert Slatery III of Tennessee,
- Ken Paxton of Texas,
- Sean Reyes of Utah, and
- Bridget Hill of Wyoming
As the chief legal and law enforcement officer in their respective states, these Attorneys General offered critical support in defense of the Second Amendment. “Calling Standard Magazines ‘large-capacity’ is a misnomer,” the brief argues. Standard magazines “often hold only in the range of eleven to fifteen rounds (in no way a large absolute number) and come standard with many of the most popular firearms.” The brief further argues that “There is nothing sinister about citizens bearing Standard Magazines. Law-abiding citizens bearing Standard Magazines with lawful firearms benefit public safety, counter-balance the threat of illegal gun violence, and help make our streets safer.”
NRA-ILA commends the hard work and dedication that these Attorneys General invested into their SCOTUS brief and the Second Amendment.

Bob Ferguson is a dangerous commie with eyes on the governor’s mansion. I wouldn’t lose a wink of sleep if someone gave him the same treatment as Thomas Wales.
If only….
If I saw WA’s POS AG Ferguson’s name on this list, I’d know immediately the list was false. He’s the one that crafted the newly passed high cap. mag ban law.
Had I seen Fergie’s monniker on that list I’d have fallen right out of my eassy chair in total shock. Take note: HE will be a ringleader of the other corrupt At’sG in the country who will ile an amici brief AGAINST this case being granted certiori. He is the one who pushed the illegal and immoral standard cap magban in Washington State. The day he steps down (or is taken down) from his golden pole as AtG in Washington will be a day to celebrate wiht firewrorks, standard cap mag dumps (safely downrange into a big dirt berm, of… Read more »

You mean this? Why isn’t she having us push FLAG to join?
I’m thinking that she’s long ago sold her soul for a LOT of ham sandwiches! Like, tons of them… enough to fill that spare truck tire!

“Standard magazines “often hold only in the range of eleven to fifteen rounds (in no way a large absolute number) and come standard with many of the most popular firearms.” Missed the AR standard 30 round magazine…….stupid strategic blunder.
