On June 14, 2024, the Supreme Court of the United States overturned the ATF’s 2018 prohibition on bump stocks. This case was fully backed by Guns Owners of America (GOA) and Gun Owners Foundation. GOA recently filed an amicus brief with the highest court in the land in this case, and previously filed their own independent challenge to the prohibition following meetings with the Trump administration and lobbying efforts on Capitol Hill did not yield any positive results.
Supreme Court justices argued that the ATF’s effort to re-categorize bump stocks as machine guns was a clear misinterpretation of the underlying federal law, as stressed by the Justices in the recent court opinion.
