Not necessarily. If it was legal for you to own a gun last month and they changed the law this month, then under Ex Post Facto: They can not bring charges against you for owning a gun last month. They can file charges this month as you are not in compliance with the current law.

Yes lets look at the rest of the world... Democracy? Constitution? Those are things unique to America, and what makes the country different from every other country in the world.

Now to hear my simple Glock with 15 rounds could have any issues is making me stomped on mad. If I wanted something with lower numbers of rounds I could have gotten something single stacked and gotten something thinner for a daily carry! But NO I went with what I thought was best and got something that carried more so I'd not have to carry around an extra mag. I'm a woman and don't have a ton of space to put cell phones, mags, and such all over me. Don't say purse as for one I don't carry one but two I don't think having a gun in a purse is the safest place to put one.

Consider me a stomped on snake on this topic right now. Where is the best place to put my fight? I've yet to join the NRA or what not. i need some guidance on who and where is the best place to fight for this to go away.

The gun itself probably will not be banned just the magazine...

If I were you I would buy a Life Membership in the NRA.

YellowTJ wrote:Ok so on my Glock 19 how would I go about getting say a 10 rounder. Again being new to guns I'm not ever sure how that'd work in my gun as it would change the normal configuration of how the bullets are in the mag. Any of you who went though this know.

The 10 round mag is the same size at the 12, 15 and 17 round mags... it just has a spacer under the follower to prevent more than 10 rounds from being inserted in the mag, and the mag will not function without the spacer.

Re: A semiautomatic pistol with a fixed magazine ?????

I was under the impression that the manufacture of any "high capacity" (over ten rounds) magazine would be banned regardless of whether it was for a rifle or a handgun, but I don't see that right now in HR1022. Maybe someone else can clear up that point.
The last time around the banned gun was still legal to possess, you just could not buy any "New" magazines greater than 10 round capacity.

For example prior to the last ban I bought an HK USP 9 with 15rnd magazine. During the ban I could only buy 10 round magazine.
