A Cowlitz County judge ruled Washington state’s high-capacity magazine ban unconstitutional Monday.
This comes after Washington state Attorney General Bob Ferguson filed a lawsuit against a gun store in Kelso in September 2023 for selling the magazines after the ban went into effect.
The 2022 law bans the sale, import, manufacturing and distribution of ammunition magazines that hold more than 10 rounds.
In a statement, Ferguson called the ruling “incorrect” and said he would continue to defend it.
“Every court in Washington and across the country to consider challenges to a ban on the sale of high-capacity magazines under the U.S. or Washington Constitution has either rejected that challenge or been overruled,” Ferguson wrote in the statement.
