Oregon Governor Tina Kotek has signed into law a measure limiting magazine capacity to 10 rounds for most firearms. The law, set to take effect in January 2026, makes it illegal to manufacture, sell, or transfer magazines exceeding that capacity, with certain exemptions for law enforcement and military personnel. Proponents argue the restriction will help reduce the lethality of mass shootings, while opponents say it infringes on constitutional rights and will do little to deter criminals who obtain such equipment illegally. The law also includes provisions for safe storage and mandatory reporting of lost or stolen firearms.
