ATF & States Stripped of Power To Regulate Suppressors Under NFA Through New Challenge!

The Department of Justice (DOJ) and ATF are reportedly revisiting and revising the 'frames and receivers' rule and the 'engaged in the business' rule.

A new notice of proposed rulemaking is expected, suggesting a strategic retreat by the government to avoid a definitive court loss and to re-attempt regulation with a revised approach.

This video discusses the Supreme Court's unanimous 9-0 decision in a case involving the Martins, who were victims of an FBI wrong-house raid. The core issue revolves around the discretionary function exception under the Federal Tort Claims Act, which the government uses to claim immunity. The Supreme Court's ruling clarified that simply exercising judgment does not automatically grant immunity, and the government must demonstrate that decisions were grounded in actual policy considerations, not mere mistakes. The 11th Circuit is now rehearing arguments in light of this precedent, with judges appearing skeptical of the government's broad claims of immunity for operational failures.
