William Kirk of Washington Gun Law provides an expert analysis of the 'Bevis v. Naperville' case, where the Seventh Circuit declined to rehear the challenge to Naperville's assault weapon ban. He explains that Justice Coney Barrett's denial of an emergency review, while a setback, opens the path for a Writ of Certiorari to the US Supreme Court. Kirk emphasizes that this denial is not the end of the legal fight and suggests potential consolidation with 'Caulkins v. Pritzker' for a broader challenge to Illinois gun laws.

Colion Noir analyzes the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals ruling that AR-15s are not protected by the Second Amendment, overturning an injunction against Illinois' assault weapons ban. He argues the AR-15's civilian design and popularity should be protected, emphasizing the Second Amendment's protection of 'arms' without government limits. Noir predicts the case will proceed to the Supreme Court, potentially influenced by the Bruen decision.
