SCOTUS takes up Ghost Gun Case

[rtschl]

Don't know how the court is going to rule. But I think the lower court and 5th Circuit were correct that only Congress can change the law.

The regulation, which took effect in 2022, changed the definition of a firearm under federal law to include unfinished parts, like the frame of a handgun or the receiver of a long gun, so they can be tracked more easily.

U.S. District Judge Reed O’Connor, in Fort Worth, Texas, struck down the rule last year, concluding that it exceeded the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives’ authority. O’Connor wrote that the definition of a firearm in federal law does not cover all the parts of a gun. Congress could change the law, he wrote.

Every new rule the ATF has come up with the past 10-20 years needs to be struck down.
