An appeals court has struck down a federal rule prohibiting individuals aged 18-20 from purchasing handguns, a ruling currently applicable within the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals (Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas). This decision challenges the long-standing age discrepancy where 18-year-olds can buy long guns but not handguns, and raises questions about constitutional rights and age-based restrictions.

This video discusses the Fraser v. ATF court case, which challenged the federal prohibition on 18-to-21-year-olds acquiring handguns through licensed dealers. Judge Robert Payne ruled that the Second Amendment protects this age group's right to acquire handguns, rejecting arguments based on historical interpretations of 'the people' and the age of majority. However, the ruling also noted a distinction between the right to acquire and the right to sell firearms, which the speaker finds potentially problematic for future legal arguments.
