This is the third amicus curiae brief filed by GOF in this case which was brought by the California Rifle and Pistol Association.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aside from the clear Constitutional arguments, there is evidence that banning high-capacity magazines do nothing to prevent criminals from committing crimes. According to a report published by Breitbart, Chicago banned \u201chigh-capacity\u201d magazines in 2013, but the criminal use of those weapons rose in 2014, 2015, and 2016.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The full text of the brief can be found&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/link.mediaoutreach.meltwater.com\/ls\/click?upn=Oz1UWiqUWrBKcxGldJMlGJe1gAu5VsIVJhvFUdQDIy5MnrmRHOFJWfNsjDf1mKGoImbDafz4vZuQCDAgjMlAj2K7OJX-2BhVpspA2yqgS1NADFB-2FxnhQbi-2FQEbo6B0iM7U-2FEa9lBt4oLKocGwTRNkJ-2FHnQ-2FVz1JrONnfYBFJbK5K1KpN98sOuL5GryNKYrvMrSjeDVOgvlfKPW2n1cDo9Ayfp5o9qCSVkDlqaGP2xIbgRUS6l17KM1Im6U48XERDTJd60BpOtDOQ0IlR-2BIerJka1Lf8Zid0A3NMSRHMbBGbeWS7u5FH5jD8yMv8yqCi8n6-2BraIvOKD-2F-2B6HtwdS-2FplXZQWHpO48EZtDt6nxnWNPmhOEkmrHoNxsODNdbIDtiQc01pgSHNWcz2FbPwrBE7XuM-2Ff5GzNpmhubB5HldVU3zB60-2FDzfV3A-2Fcg7cYzdkVg0hOfLJ1mAjowlJXO3jM1T2FnFf2SRocADGQDiWvuCCpcAMDtftJCU1r3KPhM3qh5oZE3TDcgpuk3TOvTAWLLcJ0eRs2xU7Q6sj7-2BTRhaL2DDSmUYY-2BC3y-2FvnGWGDSQG-2BWUEIqP3fJBALAFD-2F4A5orfcp6c-2Fuw7R-2Ba-2F25P3z076xImB3oH1zBRYIdTibPT5Y6dajUbl7LR9mv09FyGCJVCEI5bvO0cJXMXMtjR2dRqfXy5sgVr0ecALwHO9VsZQPTP5q0LXeeJ6bTfQygPsYF0Du0x1reBVOdYM73t82K1xFm8pLu7UeKLZtC-2Brd3bLeqkfRDZlQx6Wxnjo5fVLYg82dD5-2Bub1kt9CMMB6zbpb0BQY-3DlRmT_5e1W5rlmjSliCVoePxvgR0q5V-2BYbHynJ0mZPVtltMZxvLyvgwRgEHTgeEHaLYJoEN-2FYcLJFMBu06Pvna-2ByAODdABk829dYz5n7UGJRLV9grvm0C2nFXDGNwlcmwa743oLy2HU3zQ-2BR-2Bv1mTZgEdjwtDqRjASihMzTPpooXpXlLc5XSbM9stZzW0V4gaQzSaXigjQ5RncMQnQTIC8XqXaGIt0XSky57pmOa1jQjJ3WCuOjp-2BFWozdBNPiVomfVUTKjKrggS18k5mCGRTgbWBCV5EPQmYAqUu0LX39YWt-2BPE5DBufHCFrFZKUtwkMyB98l7w0UcWaHMzDxCEgy9zvxHV-2Faxw5HVLh5xBZxpk-2BM0HJRGSYSmY-2FjnTAtdipRCKaS9jbyg-2FhRQfaTVSx3ah9HIA-3D-3D\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"goa-urges-scotus-to-hear-challenge-to-unconstitutional-california-magazine-ban\" title=\"GOA Urges SCOTUS to Hear Challenge to Unconstitutional California Magazine Ban\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About GOA<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Gun Owners of America is a nonprofit grassroots lobbying organization dedicated to protecting the right to keep and bear arms without compromise.
