Americans Own More Than 700 Million 11-Plus-Round Gun Magazines: NSSF

The report comes as some states enacted bans and a proposed bill would levy a 1,000 percent federal excise tax on high-capacity magazines and assault rifles.

U.S. citizens own over 700 million ammunition magazines with more than a 10-round capacity, making it the “national standard for magazine capacity,” according to the National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF).

“An estimated 963 million magazines were produced and entered the commercial market between 1990 and 2021,” an April 12 NSSF report said.
