A September court ruling has significantly redefined gun rights by establishing 10 new rules for federal agencies and states. The decision mandates strict scrutiny for all Second Amendment cases, requiring government restrictions to align with historical text, history, and tradition. Key changes include reinforced interstate travel protections, privacy safeguards against government surveillance, new rules for ammunition sales and FFL compliance, and a mandate for shall-issue carry permits within 30 days. The ruling also limits the scope of red flag laws and strips qualified immunity from officers who knowingly violate Second Amendment rights.
