Maine Senate Democrats wrapped up their legislative session by passing gun control in response to the October 25, 2023, Lewiston shooting.
Omaha, Nebraska, Mayor Jean Stothert signed two gun-control measures this month, one that bans “bump stocks” and the other that bans gun-building kits.
Mike Cargill, owner of Central Texas Gun Works and plaintiff in the bump stock case the Supreme Court just agreed to hear, believes his challenge to the bump stock ban may de-weaponize federal agencies across the board.
A three-judge panel of the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit ruled Tuesday that the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) bump stock ban is “ambiguous” and reversed a lower court’s ruling that upheld the ban.
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit struck down the ATF’s bump stock ban on Friday, noting that a bump stock is not a “machine gun.”
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit handed down a 13-3 decision Friday striking down the regulatory gun control that banned bump stocks under former President Donald Trump.
