thats good news.
even if it goes the right way, commie states will just ignore it like they did Bruen. i hate to be so pessimistic but i dont have any faith that these rulings will be heeded. |

Quoted: What gun case has scotus ever settled “ for good “ ? Every issue we had before their cases is still on going today as either scotus ruled so weakly and narrowly it was basically useless for the average citizens second amendment rights or democrats simply ignore their ruling as they please and simply pass whatever anti second amendment laws they want anyway, knowing there are never any consequences, that it will take many years to ever reach scotus, ( Biden gave a speech on this , so why not pass unconstitutional laws ? he said ) if they even take the second amendment case to begin with, which they usually don’t in second amendment cases. View Quote You need to read Bruin. It’s settled now that I’d it wasn’t illegal at the writing of the constitution, it isn’t illegal now. |

Even if SCOTUS rules in our favor the blue states will just ignore it anyway.
There's ZERO consequences for just ignoring SCOTUS. Put your self in the shoes of a blue state court - if they just rule whatever they want then EVERY 2A case will have to go to SCOTUS, and not everyone can afford to take it that far. They have effectively destroyed rule of law, and now, even more than ever, only wealthy people get justice. Unless SCOTUS can somehow reprimand these courts (start disbarring judges or something) nothing will change. |

Quoted: That's the chance in every case. But it's a sure thing that we don't like the final rule as is, much less the ATF's apparently perceived power to write laws themselves. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: Yeah we might not like the ruling on this one That's the chance in every case. But it's a sure thing that we don't like the final rule as is, much less the ATF's apparently perceived power to write laws themselves. Our big wins tend to occur with a good decision at circuit court, which the ,gov appeals to SCOTUS and gets spanked. Much tougher to appeal a loss for our team to SCOTUS and get heard. |

That being said if it were “not” to go our way I wonder what would happen to all of the stuff already in the wild since milling and bending receiver flats have been a thing for quite some time.

While this is important I fail to see how it’s moving so quickly. There are issues which are almost 100 years old. And decades old issues which IMO should be ahead in the queue.
This is just strange. |

Quoted: Quoted: I thought we already had a win on that in the 5th, SCOTUS taking it up isn't necessarily a good thing. I won't hold my breath for a Bruen-like opinion excoriating the ATF and gutting Chevron deference. The Court should be taking up the cases from state laws and state courts expressly sticking their thumb in Bruen's eye. Time to settle it for good Like Bruen did? |

Quoted: it does not matter. the states are ignoring everything they don't like (NY, NJ, CA, etc) as well as soon-to-be converted to commie states (ex. VA dems passed 35+ bills that directly violate not only the 2A but also Heller, Miller, Bruen - all vetoed, but coming back). Another Bruen ruling will lead to simply more of the same. The big mistake in our Founding or somewhere is the AJ is appointed by the President. So, commie Garland would be who would/should be suing the crap out of states for these violations and you see how that is going. View Quote "AJ?" Did you mean AG? How else would you want to handle Cabinet nominations? |

Quoted: Or, after circulating draft decisions saying Chevron is toast in Loper Bright/ Relentless, the SC is tired of ATF's bullshit. The SC decided previously, and the Solicitor General already conceded that it was the proper decision, that the DOJ is not afforded Chevron deference in situations with criminal penalties. So then under what authority does ATF have to make all of these off-the-wall determinations, flip flopping their position based on political whims? This case is a great venue to decide that question.

However the court did settle a number of things from a legal perspective: 1) It's an individual right. 2) Can't ban handguns outright. 3) It applies to the states. 4) It applies to modern firearms and other weapons. 5) Can't ban carry. 6) Text and tradition is the basis for understanding the 2nd. |

We either have rights or we don’t. I am allowed to make a gun. If I start with bar stock or something closer to final form, it should not make a difference.
If the ruling is that I cannot start with something that isn’t a gun and make a gun, then I never had the right anyway. If you can’t have a gun, you are just a subject. |

Won't change anything for me, since NY thumbs its nose at the SCOTUS. But I hope it goes our way anyway.
