The Supreme Court granted an emergency appeal from the Biden administration and revived federal rules forbidding the sale or use of homemade or assembled guns.
The Supreme Court on Tuesday granted an emergency appeal from the Biden administration and revived federal rules that forbid the sale or use of assembled guns that can be bought online and are untraceable.
The vote was 5 to 4. Justices Clarence Thomas, Samuel A. Alito Jr., Neil M. Gorsuch and Brett M. Kavanaugh dissented.Advertisement O’Connor ruled in favor of several Texas gun owners and a gun dealer who argued the Gun Control Act of 1968 and its definition of a “firearm” does not extend to the unassembled parts of a working gun.Unless repealed, it “would allow anyone with access to the internet to anonymously buy a parts kit or partially completed frame or receiver and easily assemble a working firearm in as little as 20 minutes,” she said. That “would virtually repeal the core provisions of the federal firearms laws.
The government had appealed to the 5th Circuit Court in New Orleans, which refused to lift the judge’s order.
