AN ACT ELIMINATING THE TEN-ROUND FIREARM MAGAZINE CAPACITY LIMIT.
SB 1170 would remove a current state law limiting firearm magazines to holding no more than ten rounds. The bill amends state statutes to eliminate this specific capacity restriction, allowing magazines to hold more rounds without legal limit. This change directly affects firearm owners and manufacturers by removing a requirement on magazine capacity. The bill does not establish a new limit or include additional safety provisions, solely eliminating the existing ten-round cap.
