How is the California large-capacity magazine ban affected by the Federal ban (from 1994-2004), and vice versa?
The Federal Assault Weapons Ban was law from 1994 until it expired in 2004. During that time, the manufacture of new large capacity magazines was restricted to law enforcement and military use only. The sale of preexisting (“pre-ban”) large capacity magazines was unchanged and still legal in California until the state ban took effect on January 1, 2000. Up until that date, Californians could buy large-capacity magazines just like the rest of the country.
