What the 9-0 SCOTUS Decision in S&W v. Mexico Means for Assault Weapons Bans

Last week, gun owners had a mixed week at the U.S. Supreme Court with the court denying cert in Snope vs Brown, the Maryland "assault weapons" ban case as well as Ocean State Tactical vs. Rhode Island, a challenge to the state's standard capacity magazine ban, but issuing a unanimous decision shooting down Mexico's lawsuit against U.S. firearms manufacturers. Mark Smith, a constitutional attorney who hosts the 4 Boxes Diner Podcast on YouTube Tube broke down the decision and the implications it has for a positive ruling in the future related to so called assault weapons bans. Smith notes that this opinion was written by one of the most liberal justices on the Court so it is a big deal that it ws unanimous and there is some nuggets that are good for gun owners looking for a positive ruling on so called "assault weapons".

NRA-ILA Weighs in On SCOTUS Denial of Cert in Maryland AWB Case

On yesterday's Bearingarms.com Cam and Company, NRA-ILA Executive Director John Commerford joined Cam for a wide ranging conversation that hits on the Supreme Court's denial of cert in the Snope case challenging the Maryland "assault weapons" ban, as well as the latest on suppressor deregulation in the budget reconciliation bill.  The decision to not take up the Snope case has very important implications for Virginia gun owners because the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals, of which both Maryland and Virginia are a part, said that the ban was constitutional.  That opens the door for such a ban to become law in Virignia if Abigail Spanberger is elected Governor and the Democrats keep their majority in the House of Delegates this year.
