Gun sales drive demand for high capacity magazines

LAS VEGAS
America's zeal for guns is driving sales of one of the industry's most controversial accessories: high capacity magazines.
High capacity magazines that carry 10 or more rounds, have been banned in eight states. But sales are strong where they're still legal, fueled by fears that they'll soon be subject to tighter regulations.
The popularity of the magazines prompted Jarret Mock to launch the startup TorkMag last year in Fort Myers, Florida. His startup makesmagazines that hold 35 or 50 rounds. The magazines, which sell for $22 or $40,*are for AR-15s.

It's called standard capacity because it's the standard capacity. Ill informed people like yourself and the MSM call them high capacity in an attempt to make them sound evil. Same way you refer to the modern sporting rifle AR15 as an assault rifle even though less than 1% of them are used in firearm homicides.Quote:
