Efforts to Strike Down ATF's New Pistol Brace Rule
Lawsuits and Temporary Injunctions Challenge ATF's Rule
Lawsuits and Temporary Injunctions Challenge ATF's Rule
The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) has recently filed a response to the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals in various pistol brace cases, which are currently undergoing consolidation at the appellate court level. The ATF's response argues that the lower courts have either misinterpreted the analysis or granted injunctions that exceed the scope of their authority. Consequently, the ATF is pushing for the removal of the nationwide injunction and individual organizational injunctions, including those of Firearms Policy Coalition (FPC) and Gun Owners of America (GOA).
