BELLEVUE, WA – -(Ammoland.com)- A new video obtained by the Citizens Committee for the Right to keep and Bear Arms 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 startling video demonstration, conducted under the supervision of Boone County, Ind. Sheriff Ken Campbell and funded by ArmaLite, “throws cold water on anti-gunners who argue that magazine limitations are necessary to prevent mass shootings,” said CCRKBA Chairman Alan M. Gottlieb. “We are all indebted to ArmaLite for this informative effort.”
“Under Sheriff Campbell’s supervision,” he explained, “two shooters – an experienced man and a novice female – are able to repeatedly fire 30-round shot strings at three targets, using 15-, ten- and six-round magazines, all in under 30 seconds.”
The male demonstrator 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.

“Magazine capacity limits offer no panacea to the rare mass shootings that have alarmed the country,” Gottlieb said. “It is time to stop this nonsense and expose magazine limits as the monumental fraud they are.”
From what I read this kid did not even shoot all of the bullets in his magazines before he changed them.
There goes the magazine theory.
The fact is these people pushing gun bills don’t care about magazines, they wan confiscation of every weapon in the hands of honest citizens in this country.
Do not be fooled. that is the objective.
People will complain that the first mag fired was always short one round and the last mag had an extra round.
Determined people usually can do things better than those that are less determined...

sorry but this video explains it SOOOO much better than this video.
this is an emotional analysis using RATIONAL arguments.
it shreads the communists of the MSM.
THIS is a worthwhile watch. only 3:39 minutes.
this is for hanity, rush, and even beck.
“Do not be fooled. that is the objective.”
Hell yes it is.
They know we won’t get in the boxcars willingly.
The left will always be able to “do better” than conservatives,
because not only are they more determined to change things than we are to keep them from changing,
they have no moral compunction about the means by which they will achieve their change.
You realize that this isn’t actually about high capacity magazines right? This is about disarming citizens and consolidating government power. All the logic and proof in the world won’t sway them.
You mean stuff like winning wars, taking care of people, the environment, health? Stuff like that, or stuff we don’t like or want them to do?
It is not about magazines or rifles. It is about getting any law passed so they will have their anti-gun foot in the door to go after their REAL TARGET, Handguns.
It has always been about handguns. Assault rifles are just a decoy to try and get their anti-gun foot in the door.
Once they get a ban on AWs then they will use the same reasons to go after handguns.
John Kennedy killed with a 5 shot bolt action rifle.
Charles Whitman, killed 14, wounded 32 others mostly with a bolt action 6mm hunting rifle. Also used a shotgun and an m1 carbine.
Medgar Evers, shot with a 5 shot 1917 bolt action Enfield rifle.
Martin Luther King, shot with a 4 shot Remington 760 pump action Gamemaster rifle.
Bobby Kennedy with a .22 Iver Johnson Cadet revolver.
George Wallace wounded with a 5 shot Charter Arms .38spl revolver.
Howard Johnsons shooter killed nine, wounded thirteen with a 4 shot RUGER .44 mag Deerslayer rifle.
Gerald Ford attacked with a 7 shot 1911 semi auto.
Edmond OK post office with two National Guard 7 shot 1911 pistols.
Ronald Reagan and Jim Brady with an RG-14 .22 revolver.
What do they all have in common? NONE over 7 rounds, yet after each one came a cry of panic to ban all of them.
