[gun sane]

"Writing for the majority, Justice Clarence Thomas said that a firearm equipped with the accessory does not meet the definition of "machinegun" under federal law."

 Thomas wrote the majority opinion, and I think he wrote it with other devices in mind. The FRT lawyers now have Cargill to reference.

So bump stocks are now legal. Where do Braces stand legally  And what constitutes a gun dealer. The sale of one gun. Or 100 guns. I can’t keep up with all these changes.

I’m in the same boat. I have a couple of guns I want to sell but I also don’t want to do something that can get me In trouble. 
I have heard two different interpretations now from two different FFL’s regarding selling in a private sale. One says must be done at a ffl and a background check and the stats it’s not required, only a bill of sale. So confused

You might want to get one of those steel drums full of ammo before trying to make it run.

This has less to do with the 2nd Amendment than it does with the APA, what they did was say that Chevron Deference is in the ICU!

Thomas went right back to Bruen in his Opinion, - “As always, we start with the statutory text” Garland v. Cargill, No. 22-976, 11 (U.S. Jun. 14, 2024)

Text, then historical tradition...

Law as it should be.  The "living document" school of thought is nonsense.

If you write "bread" on your grocery list and then go to the store, does that now magically mean "cheese" instead? 

The executive regulation phenomenon is just an extension of the same flawed logic.  Like rights, words matter.

Splendid. Glad the SCOTUS was able to keep in check that anti-gun POTUS.
