California Attorney General says feds not exempt from state ‘safe’ handgun law (with poll)

16. I don't have a problem with regular-capacity mags on duty.

Remember, they're charging INTO danger. And, like all self-defense shootings, it usually takes several good hits to disable somebody quickly to keep them from hurting you or somebody else. Police are more likely than regular CCW permittees to have to face the situation of shooting to keep a 3rd party safe, I think. At least in the public sphere.

Plus, we have to remember that in a case with several shooters, regular CCW permittees will not be playing Rambo unless they're cornered; they'll be trying to GTFO ASAP. "Die Hard" is but a movie. But the cops? Yeah, they're suppose to head towards the gunfire.


But unless they're subject to immediate recall in case of emergency, then they should be limited the same way regular citizens are when off-duty. You can even make a case that their service guns, uniforms, and other items should not accompany them home.
