NY lawmakers want 30-bullet clip banned

New York Sen. Eric Adams says the state should outlaw 30-bullet clips for them to help prevent another incident like the Arizona shooting that killed six people and wounded Congresswoman Gabrielle Gifford and 12 others.Adams and other lawmakers have introduced legislation to ban the clips in New York regardless of when they were made. The assault weapon ban allows for Hi-Cap Mags If manufactured before 1994. Along with weapons made before this  are subject to no restrictions under The assault weapon ban.So if a person has a assault style weapon it is legal to have Hi- Cap mags  manufactured be the 1994 date.The Mags mostly are not marked. From 1994-2004 firearms makers were required to mark Hi-cap mags with Law enforcement use only. After the federal  ban was lifted in 2004 this is no longer required.Nys kept the Federal ban in  Place as its law.For Assault style weapons.I think the reason for most to have these Hi-Cap Mags is because they can.No other reason. The hi-Cap clips are also an issue with pistols also not just rifles.I think the issue is moot, as if someone is going to use a gun in a crime they don't care if the gun is legal or not. With all the gun control we have in this country criminals still get guns. More laws are not the answer to our problems.Social issues play a bigger part in the gun abuse problems.There is no easy answer to this complicated issue.What is the answer?
