ATF’s Bump Stock Ban Could be Heading to SCOTUS; 14th Amd. Doesn’t Let President Extend Debt Limit

ATF’s Bump Stock Ban Could be Heading to U.S. Supreme Court

The U.S. Department of Justice has filed a petition for a writ of certiorari with the U.S. Supreme Court in Michael Cargill v. Merrick B. Garland, et al. In January, the full Fifth Circuit bench ruled that a bump stock does not fall within the definition of “machinegun” as set forth in federal law. Thus, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives lacked the statutory authority to issue the Final Rule banning bump stocks. NCLA represents gun shop owner, Army veteran, and firearms instructor Michael Cargill of Austin, Texas.
