This video details the legal strategy employed by the Firearms Policy Coalition (FPC) in challenging Washington D.C.'s ban on "large capacity" magazines. The FPC intentionally conceded a district court case to appeal a restrictive standing precedent set by the DC Circuit, which requires plaintiffs to prove imminent arrest or denial of a firearm before challenging a law. This tactic aims to force a review of the standing requirement itself, arguing it prevents law-abiding citizens from vindicating their Second Amendment rights.

The Supreme Court has denied emergency review for a challenge to Missouri's Second Amendment Preservation Act (SAPA).
