SAF WIN: JUDGE RULES BIDEN ERA ATF FRAME AND RECEIVER RULE UNCONSTITUTIONAL

Summary

The U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas ruled in favor of the Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) and Defense Distributed in *Defense Distributed v. Blanche*, declaring the ATF's April 2022 "Frame or Receiver" Rule unconstitutional. The court found that the rule, which expanded the definition of a "firearm" to include partially manufactured frames and receivers, violated both the Second Amendment and due process rights, issuing a permanent injunction for SAF members and Defense Distributed.
