The statute in practice

Minnesota Law in Detail

Minnesota Statutes section 471.633 preempts local regulation of firearms, ammunition, and their components. It preserves listed powers over discharge and facilities, so local range or public-building rules remain a separate inquiry from a magazine's specifications.

Federal law

Federal baseline

There is no federal magazine capacity limit; the 1994 federal assault weapons ban expired in 2004.

Scope: Detachable magazine round-count restrictions for handguns and long guns. States not listed have no capacity limit.
