Washington

In fact, when I purchased some of my handguns the statute was in place. I learned to live with the limit. It didn't matter anyway for my Springfield 1911 .45 cal. which could hold only 7 rounds in the first place.

I would like to see a ban on so-called "assault style" weapons such as the AR-15 and clones. These seem to be the weapons of choice in many mass killings and attempts at mass killings. They do much more damage and have a higher rate of fire and higher magazine capacity than most handguns. They are not needed for self-defense in any situation that I can imagine.

I used to tell people who "needed" to own one of these weapons that they should join the army instead, where they would be issued the latest version, provided with free cleaning supplies, and receive proper coaching on how to handle these weapons. Plus they would also get the use of a nice armory to secure their weapons when they weren't being used at the range or out in the field. What a nice system!
