On the eve of the first oral arguments to decide whether to delay Oregon’s narrowly passed gun control measure, a third lawsuit was filed against the state.

Backed by the National Rifle Association (NRA), the suit argues that Ballot Measure 114 creates a “falsely labeled permit to purchase” and bans standard capacity magazines, which it also “falsely labels as large capacity,” both of which the suit claims are unconstitutional.
