    Default Competition excuse

    I'm ready to be flamed but I just have to say... Using the excuse that you don't want the 15rd mag bill to pass because you shoot competition that requires you to shoot more than 15 rounds before reloading is a lame argument.

    If I was a true opponent of the bill I would suggest the rules of the competition be changed to conform to the new law. That is all.

    What is your reasoning against the mag bans? ( if you have any)

    Status quo. There is no legitimate reason to limit the amount of rounds held by magazines.

    and that is pretty much the argument being used. IDPA and USPSA limit to 10 rounds due to history with the 1994 ban. I would like to hear MarkCO's opinions on what will happen to 3giun rules.

    It is better than saying "Go ahead and ban whatever. We will conform."

    You are right that competition is a lame "excuse" to oppose magazine limits.

    However, that's even lamer.

    No limit should be enforced. What is next...the number of mags you can carry. The number of rounds you can own. Registering those rounds? Erosions of freedom start with a single drop of water, then the mudslide commences.

    That is my quote.

    How is it a lame excuse? The opposition keeps saying they believe in hunting and sporting use, competition is sporting use.

    Stop giving them ideas....

    It truly doesn't matter to me what the reasons someone is against a mag limit ban, so long as they are willing to voice it...
