SAN FRANCISCO – A federal appeals court on Tuesday upheld two San Francisco gun laws challenged by the National Rifle Association and gun owners who live in the city.
San Francisco requires handgun owners to secure weapons in their homes by storing them in a locker, keeping them on their bodies or applying trigger locks. The city also bans the sale of ammunition that expands on impact, has "no sporting purpose" and is commonly referred to as hollow-point bullets.

Though the supreme court stopped this with the DC decision.
“Though the supreme court stopped this with the DC decision.”
I attended a local hearing years ago where the defense cited a Supreme Court case. The judge said, “We don’t recognize that court here.”
bans the sale of ammunition that expands on impact, has “no sporting purpose”
1. Still waiting for someone to show me the “sporting purpose” clause in the constitution.
2. Hunting is still legal in Cali as far as I know In civilized state they require expanding bullets for hunting. Is that a “sporting purpose”.
I am still at a loss over any gun law. Is the 2nd amendment not clear enough?
HA! The entire state of Massachusetts is under this law since 1994. Thanks so much Mitt Romney. Can't wait to leave this hell hole.
These idiots just put the public in danger by banning hollow point bulletts.If a person has to fire on a bad guy,most hard ball rounds will over penatrate and strike an innocent civilian immediately behind the perp.
Hollow points prevent that from occurring by expanding on impact and taking out only the bad guy.
Thank God I don’t live in San Francisco.
Now THAT’s the kind of reasoning I expect from the 9th.
Peruta was just a glimmer of sanity coming from those clowns

It’s easy to see Edgar Cayce’s point sometimes. Thanks aimhigh.
Far as I'm concerned, people who live in San Fran deserve the loss of their rights, because they probably voted to take someone else's.
