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.

It discusses the historical context of NFA challenges, starting with the Miller decision and progressing through Heller and Bruen, emphasizing the 'common use' doctrine.

Government Regulated Silencers, Now We’re Deaf! Time to Sue.

This video argues that the US government's regulation of firearm suppressors, stemming from the 1934 National Firearms Act, has led to widespread hearing damage among law-abiding gun owners. It details the history of suppressors as safety devices invented by Hiram Percy Maxim and criticizes the NFA's $200 tax and subsequent regulatory hurdles as a means to limit access rather than collect revenue. While acknowledging the recent elimination of the tax stamp, the video asserts that suppressors remain overly regulated, hindering their accessibility as intended safety equipment.
