The DOJ is arguing that the NFA can still be enforced against pistol-braced firearms even after the ATF's pistol brace rule was struck down. This means the government believes it doesn't need a specific rule to classify and enforce NFA regulations on these items, relying instead on their interpretation of existing statutes. This shifts the legal battleground from specific rules to the broader interpretation of law by unelected officials, raising concerns for gun owners.

This video explains the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Chevron deference and its significant implications for the ATF and Second Amendment rights. The ruling limits federal agencies' power to interpret laws, returning that authority to the courts. This prevents agencies like the ATF from unilaterally creating regulations on firearms technology, such as bump stocks and pistol braces, without explicit congressional action. The decision is framed as a major victory for gun owners by reining in executive agency power.
