The Biden admin. ATF keep trying appeal after appeal (as you may recall the Fifth court recently found their law unconstitutional) fortunately there are a few courts that still have some common sense!
In a significant legal victory for gun owners and Second Amendment advocates, the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals has reversed a lower court’s decision and issued a strong rebuke to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF).
The Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled the regulation as “arbitrary and capricious,” a clear indication that the federal government overstepped its bounds in attempting to regulate lawful gun ownership.
The lawsuit, brought by a coalition of 25 states led by West Virginia, alongside gun manufacturers and owners, challenged the ATF’s rule as an unlawful and arbitrary overreach of its authority.
The plaintiffs argued that the rule unfairly targets law-abiding gun owners and manufacturers, placing millions at risk of severe criminal penalties for merely possessing firearms with stabilizing braces—a tool originally designed to help disabled veterans like Richard Cicero, who lost both his right arm and leg serving our country, shoot pistols more safely.

Edit: I would like to give a shout out to Missouri AG Andrew Bailey; who has been in the forefront addressing many of the unconstitutional actions of this administration including the assault on the first amendment/ free-speech, as well as the lawfare against Trump in the New York case, as well as this case. There are only a few Republican AGs including Texas's Ken Paxton, Kentucky's George Nicholas, and Florida's Moody that are even making the slightest effort to fight the tyranny that's facing us.
