Videos tagged with Nationwide Vacatur

The video discusses the ongoing legal battle surrounding ATF pistol brace restrictions. While a nationwide vacatur of the rule exists, the DOJ continues to assert its underlying legal theory that braced pistols can be considered Short Barreled Rifles (SBRs) under the NFA. A new development involves the White House budget proposal, which signals a potential policy shift away from aggressive enforcement of such regulations, creating a tension between legal authority and political direction. The Gun Owners of America (GOA) lawsuit aims for a permanent injunction to prevent future enforcement of this theory.

The outcome of these arguments will significantly impact the regulation of pistol-braced firearms.
