“High capacity magazine.” While it’s hard to read, it appears that the weapon is a Glock 23, so this would actually be a “standard capacity” magazine. Granted, the individual involved in this case should not have been in possession of the firearm, but seriously? “High capacity”? Thank God I’ll be out of this ridiculous state soon and living in a Free State.
