Well, if your search criteria for an expert is: someone who will say whatever the hand up ‘er butt tells ‘er to say, there yah go.
So, having smaller clips would simply mean more clips. Overall weight/volume not much different as the clip itself is not all that much.
Much ado about nothing. A bonehead determined to shoot will find a way — unless the Aholes in charge of the state permit widespread concealed carry. A lot of shooting sprees were stopped by some armed good guy deciding that he is not going to be a victim.

Who died and made her God?
How is it she is the person who decides what everyone else needs or not?
The government does not get to decide what citizens "need".
It is beyond their pay grade.
It’s not the Bill of Needs.
cry me a river, Ahole wimp!
those magazines are not illegal, they are protected by the 2A (notwithstanding any illegal “laws” you may have in your state)
and those magazines have never lept up and hurt you, either. they, like their firearm, are mere chunks of inert metal.
it is people who try to deprive the rest of us of our rights, and people who try to leave us defenseless against leftist and criminal street gangs and thugs.... people like you (speaker in article)... that are dangerous to us, dangerous to us all.
Yes, I'm messing with you.

***If the magazines used in the Boulder shooting were not sold illegally,***
***Every state that borders Colorado allows the sale of large capacity magazines. ****
Enough said.
I was at our local Farm and Ranch store last week. They had a tub full of 30 rd PMag magazines. I didn’t need any but bought one anyway.
There's no need for that woman to get her hair and nails done either, should that be outlawed? Is grooming listed as a right in the constitution now, did it replace the 2nd?
***DA: Boulder shooter had 10 illegal large capacity magazines***
Yeah, but, more importantly, was he wearing his mask and social distancing??
I remember 1970, when THE DENVER POST came out with a scathing call for a ban on “SATURDAY NIGHT SPECIALS!”
Too them any handgun that cost less than $50 was a SNS. At that time a Ruger Mark II could be bought for $45 so it was on their “to be banned” list.
And as usual, “Rifles would not be affected!”
I hear some of his magazines had over 100 pages.
Magazine capacity restrictions are idiotic for a couple of reasons. First, obviously, a criminal intent on committing dozens of counts of multiple felonies isn't going to be deterred by breaking another law or two.
Second, in typical mass shooting incidents it takes minutes, sometimes up to 10 to 15 minutes or more for an organized LE response to move in. So even if the criminal perpetrator decided to obey capacity limits, he or she would still have more than enough time to do whatever evil they came to do, even with the extra few seconds required for a couple of magazine swaps. The only time those seconds really count is if there is someone right there (ahem, such as an armed citizen) to put a stop to the criminal sooner rather than later. But of course they are trying to disarm all law abiding citizens... You could be forgiven for coming to the conclusion the people advocating for capacity limits *want* more deaths, more mass shootings...
The 2nd Amendment is one of the Bill of Rights. It is NOT one of a Bill of Needs....
But very useful to the anti second amendment propagandists.
They are grasping at anything that will further their agenda. Can’t blame a white guy although they did try.
“I am SHOCKED that he broke a gun law”
And does not the dumbass statement, “Boulder shooter had 10 illegal large capacity magazines” make the case for why legal gun owners NEED to have more than 10 rounds?
How many are legal these days?
“DA: Boulder shooter had 10 illegal large capacity magazines”
And if we can only disarm you law abiding citizens we will make everyone safe....except we can’t disarm criminals or keep illegal arms from flooding across the border but what the heck it’s the only thing we can do to further our plans of complete control.
So, the takeaway seems obvious. Passing laws does not prevent mass shootings. Because believe it or not, mass shooters don’t care about breaking laws. Yes, I am Captain Obvious. But here in CO with all the retarded Leftists, you have to play Captain Obvious.
Good point. Now if you called them clips, they’d understand.

None of the government’s damn business how many rounds my firearms hold!
