BREAKING: Bump stock ban upheld... ATF takes a win, but here is why it may be SHORT LIVED...

A federal court ruling by the 11th Circuit in United States v. Maxim Alsenat determined that machine guns are not protected by the Second Amendment. The court's reasoning, based on the 'common use for lawful purposes' standard established in Heller, could have broader implications for other firearm categories. The ruling emphasizes historical regulation and the classification of machine guns as dangerous and unusual weapons.

The Supreme Court denied review in US v. Peterson, a case challenging the National Firearms Act (NFA) as applied to suppressors. The Fifth Circuit's ruling, which upheld the NFA by likening it to a 'shall issue' licensing scheme, now stands as precedent in that circuit. This decision has significant implications for future Second Amendment challenges to firearms regulations, potentially allowing broader government control over protected arms under the guise of objective licensing.
