RE: Stop proposing large capacity magazine bans

Dear [TITLE] [LAST NAME]:

I am writing to demand that you stop proposing bans on large capacity magazines.

The video destroys the myth surrounding so-called "high capacity magazines" by proving that determined shooters using smaller capacity magazines can fire just as fast, and in some cases even faster despite having to reload.

The male demonstrator in the video fired 30 rounds from a pistol, first with two 15-round magazines, in 20.64 seconds, then with three ten-rounders in 18.05 seconds and finally with five six-round magazines in 21.45 seconds. The woman fired the same magazine sequence, with two 15-round magazines in 22.9 seconds, three ten-rounders in 25.51 seconds and the final five six-round magazines in 26.93 seconds.

In addition, the man then fires 20 rounds from an AR-15 rifle using a single magazine, in 12.16 seconds. He then fired 20 rounds using two ten-round magazines in less time, 10.73 seconds!

This is concrete evidence that shows it does not matter if it a 50 round clip or ten 5 round clips they can be shot equally as fast. But a homeowner who has one 15 round clip in their handgun may need every one of those bullets to defend their home. We cannot afford to be limited when trying to defend ourselves.



Sincerely,
