One of the parts that I think will have staying power (paraphrasing)...
The ban is equivalent to depriving citizens of their property without compensation.
^this I think is the only reason he issued the injunction.

Appeal to 3 court bench, ruling upheld.
9CA en banc will magically appear and overturn
SCOTUS will deny cert
Thomas and Gorsuch will further lament.
Meanwhile, Czech's will probably be moving to buying full auto from the grocery store.
Ask a typical Yalie how to change a car tire and he'll produce a copiously and extensively referenced artful dissertation (with Latin translation): Tire-Changing in the 21st Century: The Thinking Man's Guide to Navigating America's Roadways. But whaddya think happens on his way home from receiving the Pulitzer prize when he gets a flat? He's gotta ring the AAA, because he hasn't a clue how to actually, mechanically change a freaking tire.
Dat's the difference between theory (the two-dimensional utopia that Bolshies inhabit) and practice (where real America can-do spirit lives).
If that federal judge is on SCOTUS ruling in our favor, sure. Otherwise... no.Would the words “whatever common magazine size he or she judges best suits the situation.” a federal judge have any impact on our own mag restrictions?
That federal judge has a brilliant judicial career ahead.
On administrative duty. Reviewing contracts for janitorial services for the courthouse, etc.
But, it is a lifetime sentence, er, uh, appointment.
I've made a excellent career reviewing janitorial contracts. It's a good life.
lol. Pretty sure I've reviewed some, too. I was trying to be funny. Guess I missed.
Bill and Hillary are Yalies. You think they know that much, or care? You think they call AAA themselves? Hillary would have a temper tantrum aimed at whoever let the tire get flat. Bill would have an intern do it, giving her instructions "First, bend over and lean against the tire..."

In Duncan v. Becerra, a federal district court had issued a preliminary injunction blocking the enforcement of California's ban on magazines that fit more than 10 rounds, pending a full trial on the merits. Today, the Ninth Circuit upheld this, in a 2-1 nonprecedential decision, though one that heavily deferred to the lower court's judgment, and didn't prejudge the final result after a trial is held and the final judgment is issued and appealed.
Even better, because the District Court still hasn't rendered its final decision, Kavanaugh will be seated on SCOTUS well before (as in years) the inevitable 9CA appellate or en banc decision against 2A gets appealed to SCOTUS.
Great news indeed.
Really great news. And it supports MSI's and the other plaintiffs' Takings suit on the bump stocks. That last line that an uncompensated Taking cannot be justified by police powers is key.
