This video discusses a new lawsuit filed by the Firearms Policy Coalition (FPC) against the ATF, challenging what is described as executive overreach. The lawsuit, based on the precedent set by West Virginia v. EPA, targets the ATF's redefinition of firearms and its 'frame or receiver' rule, which FPC argues defies the plain language of the Gun Control Act and attempts to create law through interpretation rather than congressional action. The FPC views this as a potential 'silver bullet' against the ATF's expanding regulatory authority.

The Firearms Policy Coalition (FPC) has filed a lawsuit against the ATF challenging the new final rule redefining frames and receivers.

This action follows a similar lawsuit filed by GOA, highlighting ongoing legal challenges to the ATF's regulatory actions.
