The DC Court of Appeals has struck down the District's ban on magazines holding more than 10 rounds in Benson v. United States, ruling it violates the Second Amendment. The District has filed an emergency motion to suspend the ruling's precedential status and is seeking a rehearing en banc by the full court. This legal battle has significant implications for magazine ban cases nationwide and could eventually reach the Supreme Court.

This video discusses a lawsuit filed by the Connecticut Defense League challenging the state's assault weapons ban. The lawsuit argues that the ATF's new pistol brace rule, which reclassifies 'Any Other Firearms' (AOWs) as rifles or short-barreled rifles, inadvertently brings previously legal firearms under the scope of Connecticut's assault weapons ban, potentially making tens of thousands of owners felons. The plaintiffs are seeking an emergency injunction to prevent this reclassification from impacting them.
