Hawaii: Senate Passes Gun & Mag Ban Expansion Bills

From NRA-ILA, THURSDAY, MARCH 11, 2021

This week, the Senate passed two anti-gun bills. They will now go to the House for further consideration.

Senate Bill 301, sponsored by Karl Rhoads (D-13), bans all magazines capable of holding more than ten rounds. The legislation fails to protect magazines that are already lawfully owned, requiring destruction, surrender, or alteration. 

Senate Bill 307, sponsored by Karl Rhoads (D-13), bans "any firearm or rifle with the capacity to fire ammunition of fifty caliber or higher," with an exemption for shotguns and muzzleloaders.
