Landmark Gun Rights Ruling from Fourth Circuit | Gun Talk Radio

The Duncan v. Bonta case, challenging California's magazine ban, is under Supreme Court consideration. A key argument for review, based on the US v. Benson ruling striking down a similar DC ban, has been undercut by the DC Court of Appeals granting an en banc rehearing in Benson. This shifts the legal landscape, potentially influencing the Supreme Court's decision to grant or deny certiorari for Duncan.

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.

The Supreme Court denied review for two significant Second Amendment cases: Peterson v. United States, concerning the NFA's taxation and registration of suppressors, and Gardner v. Maryland, which addressed firearm reciprocity across state lines. Several other major 2A cases were deferred to future conferences, extending the uncertainty for gun rights.

It details the case's progression, the DOJ's shifting stance, the Fifth Circuit's 'shall-issue' licensing theory, and the procedural posture before the Supreme Court conference. The analysis highlights concerns that the Fifth Circuit's logic could justify broader firearm restrictions by labeling them as licensing schemes.

The Department of Justice (DOJ) and ATF are reportedly revisiting and revising the 'frames and receivers' rule and the 'engaged in the business' rule. This follows the DOJ voluntarily dismissing its appeal in a Fifth Circuit case against the ATF, indicating the current rules are on shaky legal ground. 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.
