AR15 Fixed Mag w/ Standard Capacity

When the ban on standard fixed mags is officially struck down, will ARs with fixed mags be able to benefit from this?

From what I understood, even ‘freedom week’ standard mags weren’t allowed in the fixed mag platform. Will the new ruling affect this?

No.

That bit of 'assault weapon' Penal Code was not before the judge.

It would be logical to apply transitivity - restricting LCMs is unconstitutional, so laws creating other crimes based on LCMs should also be unconstitutional - but I think Each. Damned. Phrase. will need to be litigated separately.

"Logic" and "California gun laws" have not even a passing acquaintance.

I have no idea.
But if you put two legal things and put them together, that makes them illegal?
I mean if you take a legal featureless rifle, and put a flash hider on it, that makes it illegal.
Not saying its legal or illegal, just saying its stupid.

Under California Penal Code Section 12276.1
2) A semiautomatic, centerfire rifle that has a fixed magazine with the capacity to accept more than 10 rounds.

An AR with a fixed magazine would be considered an assault weapon with any magazine that holds more than 10 rounds. That is why featureless and RAWs/BBRAWs can use magazines that exceed 10 rounds.

But I was taught in English and Math that two negatives equals a positive, so two illegals make it legal?

See Miller v Becerra which will hopefully see a ruling soon.

Need to update your code reference. The 'Dangerous Weapon Control Law' was reorganized for 2012; the bit of 12276.1 you quote is now in 30515
