Magazine size has two opposite effects in different situations. If you’re in an initiative role, ie attacking, presumably unopposed in a “gun free zone”, you can set yourself up with a vest or whatever with many magazines. Changing mags is trivial, and the overall rate of fire is not decreased significantly. When reacting, defending a position, that magazine reduction puts you at a severe disadvantage. If I confront five armed home invaders, I want a deep magazine or two, not to have to carry a stack of 7s around.
This Democrat Senator, who was put into his election by the NJ Democrats and NJ Courts when the actual candidate self-destructed, there was no legal way to replace him and NJ was about to get a Republican Senator, is a wonderful demonstration why when the Dems play fast and loose with the rules, they should be smacked down hard and decisively.
He should not even be a Senator. Nor should Franken, elected by recounting until the desired number of fraudulent votes was found.
Lautenberg has to re-introduce this every so often just to prove he’s still alive.
Just like Charley Rangel gets to re-introduce his bill reinstating the military draft every session. Once his ego has been stroked, they can move on with serious business.

I’m shocked, shocked that a well known anti gun Senator would introduce anti gun legislation!
