The background check regulation is a good one, a Federal requirement that all transfers go through a licensed FFL holder and a NICS would be even better, as would a Federal Firearms Owners License requiring a rigorous background check and mental health screening.

The magazine "ban"? Meaningless fluff designed for publicity that will do nothing to decrease the death toll if some nut job goes off his rocker.

What's the meaningful difference between two taped together 15 round magazines and one 30 round magazine? The second or two that it takes to turn over the 15 rounder and the fact that the 30 rounder is more likely to jam. Other than that, not much.
