A Trump-appointed appellate court judge broke with his colleagues in a California gun case by posting a "dissent video" to YouTube of him manipulating firearms in his judicial chambers.

An appellate judge shared a video of himself disassembling multiple firearms in an unusual dissent against the court's decision to uphold California's ban on gun magazines that hold more than 10 rounds of ammunition.

A conservative U.S. appeals court judge took the unusual step on Thursday of recording himself handling several handguns and explaining their mechanisms to explain why his colleagues had wrongly upheld a California law banning magazines that hold more than 10 rounds of ammunition.
