A Bill To Stop Interstate Firearms Sales

This video discusses a major argument in the US Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit concerning the federal ban on 18-20 year olds acquiring handguns from FFLs.

The decision emphasizes that age-based restrictions on the fundamental right to self-defense, without historical precedent, are not permissible.
