Oregon judge temporarily blocks voter-approved high-capacity magazine ban
Fox News
An Oregon state judge handed Second Amendment groups a victory Thursday, temporarily blocking a new law that bans high-capacity magazines.
Earlier this week, Raschio extended his order blocking the law's permit-to-purchase provision, as well as a part of Measure 114 that would prevent a gun sale until the results of a background check come back. Current federal law, by contrast, allows a gun sale to proceed if the background check takes longer than three business days.

The lawsuit in Harney County, filed by Gun Owners of America Inc., the Gun Owners Foundation and several individual gun owners, seeks to have the entire law placed on hold while its constitutionality is decided. The state lawsuit specifically makes the claims under the Oregon Constitution, not the U.S. Constitution.
