Until the next court date, in a different circuit, with a bribed judge, says different...
Bruen fucks them in the ass. Case closed.
Ultimately the end of the line is SCOTUS though, who made the Bruen decision that these lower courts are (sometimes) ignoring. Meaning there isn't a chance in hell they get this through on appeal.
The Bruen decision has been a death knell for kike gun control in pretty much every case tried after it was made.
The important case will be when someone files a post-'86 civilian machine gun manufacturing permit, gets denied, and files suit. The Brady Amendment outright banned manufacture of new machine guns, and only the ATF's invention from whole cloth of a SOT and law letter process provided a means for MGs to be manufactured and sold to the government. The moment THAT case makes it in front of a court, the Bruen precedent would require either:
1) The law must be followed as written and the government has no way to acquire new MGs. Cue repeal of the Brady Amendment so the military-industrial-conplex can supply its customers.
2) The Brady Amendment is tossed as unconstitutional and civilians can now manufacture new MGs for civilian sale.
Either outcome is going to be spicy!
