Yet another judge with a disdain for the Second Amendment and a willful ignorance of the Bruen ruling presides over a gun rights case in federal court.

In a yet unexplained turn of events, the NSSF has refused to allow its Director of Research to testify in a Colorado “high capacity magazine” ban lawsuit brought by the National Foundation for Gun Rights. As a result, NFGR has been forced to withdraw its suit.

Gun Owners of America (GOA) just filed a lawsuit in the state of Florida, challenging the state’s ban on open carry, which dates back to segregation-era laws. One of only a small handful of states that ban open carry, the law is unlikely to pass Constitutional muster.

With oral arguments having been heard over a year ago, the US Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit completely disregards established precedent. The court has ruled that “assault weapons” like the AR-15 fall outside the Second Amendment’s protection. Such willful disregard makes this case a great candidate to be heard by SCOTUS during the 2024-2025 term.

The United States District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania struck down an unconstitutional law requiring a permit for open carry in a vehicle to be considered lawful. Suarez v. Paris challenged numerous aspects of the state’s Uniform Firearms Act. Some elements were struck and some elements upheld.

Drawing upon precedent in numerous other concurrent Second Amendment cases, yesterday the US District Court for the Northern District of Texas enjoined the ATF’s redefinition of Forced Reset Triggers as “machine guns.”

All within a day, the City of Chicago withdrew and then re-filed its lawsuit against popular firearms manufacturer, Glock. In the lawsuit, they attempt to hold Glock accountable for the actions of criminals despite no wrongdoing on the part of the manufacturer.

This past Monday, the US Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit denied a request for a preliminary injunction against Delaware’s 2022 “assault weapons” ban. Is this potentially good for the 2nd Amendment in the long run?

FPC, SAF, and the Minnesota Gun Owners Caucus bring yet another victory in the US Court of Appeals. Young adults in Minnesota have had their rights to an armed self-defense restored.

A Second Amendment lawsuit being played out in Pennsylvania has all the earmarks of the kind of challenge that could make its way to the Supreme Court. The lawsuit paints the story of a liberal, small town bureaucracy attempting to harass, hinder and destroy a family-run business despite state preemption laws.
