A federal judge in the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands struck down four key gun control acts. Chief Judge Ramona Magalona ruled against handgun registration, assault weapon bans, public carry bans, and a $1,000 per gun excise tax. The decision was based on constitutional grounds, citing the Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms for self-defense. While most of the gun control measures were invalidated, a 10-round magazine ban, safe storage requirements, and licensing were left intact.
