<br /> New Jersey may enforce a new law that lowers the number of bullets that guns can hold.<br />The 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Philadelphia on Wednesday upheld a lower court’s refusal to temporarily enjoin the law.<br />The law, passed in June, reduced maximum magazine capacity to 10 rounds.<br />It was previously a 15-round limit, according to a law adopted in 1990.<br />The court said the law did not violate gun owners’ Second Amendment rights.<br />“New Jersey’s law reasonably fits the state’s interest in public safety and does not unconstitutionally burden the Second Amendment’s right to self-defense in the home." Circuit Judge Patty Shwartz wrote for the majority.<br />Nine states and Washington, D.C. have banned large capacity magazines, and federal appeals courts have upheld their bans. <br />
