“I just don’t think that you can argue that ‘Man, if we just reduced the magazine capacity enough, we’re gonna save lives.’ I think that is speculative.”

From Guns & America:
Large-capacity magazines, containers that hold more than 15 rounds of ammunition, have been illegal in Colorado since 2013. Lawmakers passed the ban following the 2012 mass shooting at a movie theater in Aurora. Several states, including Connecticut, Massachusetts and Vermont also have magazine restrictions on the books. But many gun owners still use them.
