3-round maximum shell capacity restriction

Question: My friends and I were arguing over whether or not recreational shotgun shooters (skeet/trap) are bound in the same way as game hunters by the 3-round maximum shell capacity restriction. I cannot find any Fish and Game regulations as to whether this holds true for non-game species (such as coyotes). Only game mammals and birds are listed specifically. (Ken)

Answer: Regulations regarding magazine capacity only apply when "taking" game birds and/or mammals (California Code of Regulations Title 14, sections 311, 353 and 507). The 3-round shell restriction does not apply when using a shotgun to take furbearing or non-game species, or when shooting targets, skeet/trap, sporting clays, etc. (CCR Title 14, sections 465 and 475).Fish and Game Code section 2010 does limit shotguns to no more than six shells when taking "any bird or mammal" and there are Penal Code sections restricting large capacity firearms. Additional information regarding large capacity firearms is available from the Bureau of Firearms Web site at http://ag.ca.gov/firearms.
