"California’s new ammunition background check law misfires," wrote U.S. District Judge Roger Benitez.

SAN DIEGO - A federal judge Thursday blocked background checks for ammunition buyers in California, calling the state's law on the matter"onerous and convoluted."

In 2016, Golden State voters approved Proposition 63, which included the background checks as well as a ban on high-capacity magazines for firearms. The same judge halted sales of the magazines as the state appeals another court challenge."California’s new ammunition background check law misfires, and the Second Amendment rights of California citizens have been gravely injured," he wrote.

California Attorney General Xavier Becerra late Friday filed an emergency motion with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit to pause Benitez's ruling while he appeals.
